QuoteMy prediction doesn't take much imagination. Welcome back to the 70's and the Beta-VHS wars...just this time the trade names have changed not the players.

I'M WAITING!!!  I still have a pair of SONY SLHF-1000 Beta decks. :guns:

Sorry about that.  Not sure why I started this thread here either.  I'm usually pretty good at starting a topic in the right category.  But in this case I didn't. Sorry about that.

Actually, I don't even know why I bothered to start this topic.  Its lame!

Probably should have been on the off topic discussions thread.  But it's still fun t have a little harmless nonsense fun at least once this year.:D

It's not like there's that much traffic, either, as to where organization matters a lot.

Someday, Tom, someday ;)

According to my browser this thread is in "On/Off Topic Chit-Chat"  That seems appropriate.

Here's a prediction:  The Packers beat the Vikings this weekend.

I thought of a decent prediction.  It has nothing to do with HDTV.

I predict that in the fall WDJT-TV will pick up "Wheel of Fortune" and aired that at 6:30 pm weeknights.  While WTMJ-TV, ch. 4  once again expands their 6:00 pm News to 1 hour.  Therefore WTMJ-TV providing News from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm with NBC News at 5:30 pm.

Oh with the exception of Monday night, at 6:30 pm the Green Bay coach (whoever that might be, if Sherman gets fired) has his show.

Thanks for the move.  I agree this is were it should be.  I don't know why I put it under "Programming".  Maybe I was enjoying the holidays a bit too much.

My "feeling" or "crystal ball reading":

TWC will add Cinemax and Starz! HD along with ESPN2-HD
soon and if the latter comes first, it will get complaints from more than just this subscriber.:D
TWC will add Universal HD Channel around summertime along with some other channel like Starz! or Encore HD if it hasn't already!:rolleyes:
TWC will continue to fight with Sinclair Broadcast Group until Directv has HD LiLs for the Milwaukee market including its HD channels-or-a "must carry" is instated.:(

Directv: Has HD LiLs for many markets, exception Milwaukee as it not in the top numbers - wait for 2006.
Directv will have TNT-HD, ESPN2-HD and those Cinemax HD and Starz! HD channels along with more Cinemax and Starz! SD channels due to a contract negotiation.

Dish: Will attempt to add addtional O&O networks HD channels besides its current CBS offering and aim for adding Universal HD Channel - but could be blocked in its attempt to acquire Voom to get more HD channel capacity.

Voom: It makes a last-ditch effort to add additional customers and releases its DVR with multi-room capabilities,  but Directv announces the same and derails it as a leader in this offering.
:eek:

CES show is going on - so - it is anyone's guess what will be announced - let's all hope it is good for all of us with HDTVs!:cool:
