  1. TO ALL THE VOOM HATERS on Voom No More · · Score: 1

    "VOOM IS AHEAD OF THEIR TIME" I live on the west coast and have had almost no problems with voom. I have read nothing but negative statements for the company but I would have to say that all you guys out there are going off of "OLD" information and memories about the voom service. Sure, Voom did not have the best system or service when they started but they were being a leader in a gap for alot of us HD enthusiasts. Do you guys remember when the world wide web came about, it was a world wide hell for awhile. I live on the west coast and have had 0 problems. Sure, I do have one bedroom with directtv so I can still get PPV events which Voom doesn't carry. My 60 inch sony on Direct TV is horrible for the standard channels but on VOOM it was spectacular. sure I had to live with some no name channels but just 3 weeks ago we received almost 2 dozen new channels which yes direct tv always had but trust me they weren't missed. I don't know where all of you get your information on their channels but I have been with them since December and they have all of the HD everybody else has and MORE. And, let me add they were cheaper for me than Direct TV. Sure I had to get a High Tech antenna on my room to get local in HD but man, those guys over at voom paid for it and got it installed within 7 days of the initial install. I am trully going to miss this service and especially my 60" too. Since I am working with a bigger TV, it is a HUGE difference on the picture with the feed that comes in. I can understand if I still had a 32" everthing looks good on it but if you compared them to a big LCD screen your mind would be boggled and you would take back everything you said bad about VOOM
