just signed up.

They have a good deal where you get the HD DVR for free with no contract. You just pay the monthly $6. This gives me the most flexibility to get the MTN if it is ever picked up.

You do have to return the DVR when you cancel though. But they send you the UPS box to do so.

Given that DISH has the best HD coverage right now, it's a great deal IMO.

If anyone wants to sign up maybe we can do a referral thingie.

I am glad that HD is now affordable for us common folk. Last weekend at CostCo, I got a 32" flat panel widescreen HDTV for $599.

No thank you, I would never sign up for Dish Network. Enjoy not being able to get MLB Extra Innings.

Well I cannot afford it, but I would choose an option that would allow me to afford it. I get my fix through mlb.tv. $79.99 for all the baseball you can watch on your computer. You just sit down with your books, fire up the computer, and enjoy the greatest sport while getting your studying done.

This is why I have no problem having Dish. I can watch baseball on the computer while watching Modern Marvels on the History Channel.
