Hello all My friend in USA will have Dishnetwork sub. He is asking whats the differentce between Dishnetwork SD and HD programming ? . Dishnetwork asking more money for HD reciever and dish. Whats the programming quality of dishnetwork SD and HD. The dealer said there is not much difference between SD and HD programming from dishnetwork, they appears almost same quality so don't spend on HD equipment.
Your friend is not right if we talk about the Turbo HD which is MPEG-4 H.264 1080p but for many HD channels he is right because the channels are too much compressed!
well he is getting all movie packs which comes with HD movies so he is concern about the quality. if there is not much difference on HD movies and SD movies than there is no need to spend more on HD equipment.
There is a huge difference. Anyone that says there isn't much difference is clueless. You also can't get widescreen out of ANY DN SD receiver. HD programming is free for life with payments charged to a card. DN SD sucks. The HD looks great, even on a 50" TV.
