HD Opera, yes, yes yes! PBS HD broadcasts of Metropolitan Opera live performances are without doubt among the best live HD television telecasts ever! KLRU-TV Austin Texas is broadcasting one of at least 10 of these new Met Opera HD telecasts Sunday afternoons - each Sunday a different opera. If your local PBS station is not broadcasting these operas in HD, ask them why not. Fortunately I have an over-the-air antenna so I can receive them in all their splendor. I also have Dish Network, but Dish does carry local PBS in HD. Until recently, Dish carried GALLERY, a VOOM channel, which broadcast a different BBC/OpusArte HD opera production each week. These too were stunning, but alas GALLERY has been killed by Dish in favor of FISH in HD - yes, that is fishing in HD. What a terrible Dish decision. But do check out the Met Opera on PBS HD OTA. Very worthwhile indeed...
