No can do Jeremy; current Dish boxes are MPEG-2 compliant. I've asked Dish how they intend to upgrade but haven't received a real answer yet.
Ian: more compression doesn't necessarily mean less quality. Compare uncompressed DVDs to MPEG-2; quality is similar but storage space is less for MPEG-2.

That's how Dish will fit the extra VOOM channels; it won't require an additional satellite.
