The whole Dish system, DVR and packages are stupid and costly when compared to Directv, and they don't have nearly the HD channels that Direct has, no local HD and the mid range package I have to have for HRTV only carries CNN. I watch only HRTV and use Direct for all other viewing.

That being said, I don't know where you are in Louisiana but if you can get Cox Cable they have both HRTV and TVG and you can bundle phone, internet etc. Of course I'm over on the northshore so only can get Charter, who now doesn't carry CBS nor Hornets games, not that I watch the hornets, but it's the point.

Back to no HD coverage by ESPN/ABC/NBC I have e-mailed both the NTRA and ESPN, not really expecting an answer but if I get one I'll post it here.

Maybe Steve can get us some info since he knows all the right connections...

i have the opposite feelings on which to get. used to have dtv, now have dish. not worried about hdtv-i bought a tv a few years ago, and like it a lot. see no need to upgrade when i like this one.
i found dish had more that i want to watch, and i can't get locals through dtv. as for bundling, i'm in the boonies, so i have satellite internet as well-only other option was dial up. no thanks! no cable run out here, and nothing else available for tv or 'net.
