Won't help -- the SD sats aren't able to do MPEG4.]]>Jun 8th 2010 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/Jun 7th 2010 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/
I was also signed up automatically however they rolled over my old $10 hd package to include their 13 platinum HD channel package....which I canceled making it free.]]>Jun 28th 2010 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/Jun 7th 2010 11:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/Jun 7th 2010 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/Jun 7th 2010 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/
I really wish they could offer a Pay Per Channel service ... but what are the odds they're going to do that?]]>Jun 7th 2010 1:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/Jun 7th 2010 1:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/directv-dish-offer-free-hd-for-life-with-a-few-strings-any/
