Please bring back VOOM – it was a main selling point for Dish. They had all our favorite channels – we watched Omelette and an Opera, Eye Over, RAVE, Monster, Kung Fu, Animation, and more. And what did Dish replace it with? Golf and Fishing – really? As if Dish really thinks this is any substitute! Give me my VOOM!!!

I can no longer enjoy coming home and watching the Kung Fu and Monster HD Channels because of these big Gurus making all the decisions for us and never taking into consideration all those loyal paying customers who totally enjoyed VOOM TV! Shame on DISH and Cable Vision.

That along with the fact that I lose signal if a bird flies too close to the satalite has caused me to check out Direct. More HD channels for less, and hopefully a better quality signal. Dumb move Dish

Now that Cablevision is shutting down Voom in the US,
we’ll probably never see it or it’s like again….. unless
we move to Europe… mediocrity here we come…. DISH
can’t even give us the Smithsonian channel anymore….
230 channels and nothing on! Another win for the greedy corporate masters!

I too share the same concerns with DISH customers, I am with cable vision and they too dropped VOOM. I am very infuriated by their actions and wish there was something more I can do, but unfortunately not enough high-paying cable vision customers complained….I wish the Gov would step in and monitor how much of a monopoly Cable Network is becoming. Now, my Son and I can no longer enjoy coming home and watching the Kung Fu and Monster HD Channels because of these big Gurus making all the decisions for us and never taking into consideration all those loyal paying customers who totally enjoyed VOOM TV! Shame on DISH and Cable Vision.

My cable company cablevision aslo dropped Voom, and now replaced great HDTV with USA channel and crapalistic Animalplanet! I am very dissappointed now that we wont be able to watch true HD,as the Voom networks where educational, entertaining and image and sound blew away regular american television!
Not even Verizon offers voom, I will have to move to another country! It should be illegal that these cable companies monopolize the competition and what programs are offered. Bad BAd BAd move Mr. CEO of Crapplevision Inc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
