Anyone use Dish Network (Satellite)?

I'm starting to think its no good. I like the HD selection, and my DVR is great. BUT if you want to watch a movie you have to scroll through and prerecord everything.

This sucks compared to comcast on demand. With comcast, verizon, etc. you can go find hundreds of movies for each subscribed channel. An watch them whenever you feel like it.

I feel like watching TV is work with this Dish Network service. Why must I spend time scanning 10 HBO channels to prerecord 2 movies? Am I missing something?

I used to have Dish Network and I have to say that Comcast on demand is the way to go. Plus if there is bad weather you lose your signal, I got sick of dealing with it. I have never tried the AT&T Uverse, so I can't compare that.

I love comcast. Theres a good selection of HD, on demand is amazing, and you can rent new movies that come out for like $4.

Yeah I was running an nFusion with IKS for a while and before that I had a viewsat extreme. I have a conax sat box that would be working if I bought the dongle for it but it's $100 and currently they only have movie channels mainly with almost no sports.
