Water Channel
So I am looking at Dish Network as a service provider.
Is the water channel worth it?

What are you looking for? Wakeboarding, barefoot, slalom?

My parents have it on their DN. I love the skiing, wakeboarding, barefooting, foiling stuff they got on their. I watched it last saturday night when I was visiting them. 3 or 4 hours of watersports. but they have lots of other stuff on it too. I havent watched anything else on it. I only watch the skiin if its on. They run the Secret Spot on there once in a while too. that was cool. Do you have to pay extra for it, or is it in a package?

I have still not seen any slalom event yet after 6 months. Did I miss it?

not only is the water channel worth it, they also have CSTV which carries college sports year round, NFL network which has NFL talks year round, and a lot of other cool channels. to me it was a no brainer.

Here is a link to request programs on the water channel. Maybe if we let them know that there is interest in it, they will include some in their programming. I already sent them an email request, I suggest we all do the same. Maybe they will listen and we can watch some slalom!

I have not seen the Water Channel, but we did try DishNetwork for a few days. I was very disapointed with the menu system, DVR and inability to search and easily set to record a whole series. We switched right back to cable thanks to the 3-day CA cooling off period that allows one to get out of such a contract.
I'm hoping the channel will be available from Verizon. Once they get licensed to run TV through my FIOS in Huntington Beach (I'm already hooked up for data).

Thanks for the Info Ryan.
Anybody else had any dealings with Dish vs. Direct?
