Still don't know what you're talking about. Sounds like you're making things up again. When you watch a VOD program and FF it then press Play,The program does not start at the location when you pressed Play; like with a DVR. It is delayed and you miss 3-5 seconds of the program. Back on topic, I thought this was funny and I wonder if the Hotel had WOW. Red Wings goaltender can't watch Canes-Pens series because hotels don't carry the channel »blog.mlive.com/snapshots/2009/05···est.html

Joe12345678 join:2003-07-22 Des Plaines, IL	reply to imrf said by imrf : I don't have a 2-3 second delay. So I'm not sure what you're talking about. As for queuing, cable is already able to do that without having to wait, that's the whole point of VOD. It's already queued up. a delay after trying to rev, ff, pause, and other video controls.

imrf Premium join:2002-06-06 Utica, MI ·Comcast ·WOW Internet and C..	reply to nickkkkk said by nickkkkk : I am a WOW customer and can't believe that there is no VS. HD or VS at all. I have VS. with WOW. Sucks to be all you guys in Chicago. Or ones that refuse to get more than analog tv service. The HD lineup is lame, regardless to what Comcast offers. No more or less lame than Comcasts. I don't have any major problem with WOW's current HD lineup. It has pretty much all the HD channels that show anything worth a damn. Also the OnDemand is pathetic, Comcast KILLs WOW in OnDemand services, I can honestly say the OnDemand service is completely worthless. VOD costs $$$$$$. Comcast has lots of $$$$$$, WOW does not. VOD is just an added bonus, it was never there in the beginning. Try DTVs VOD service. Oh, wait, they don't have it, unless you have a DVR and you let it download the show to it. lol

I was say to him that just because DTV has 200HD channels, doesn't make them the best when a large majority barely offer anything in HD, and many suck in general. for a long time wow as lacking channels that do have HD like TNT, ESPN 2 and they still don't have csn chicago + HD. Chicagoland sports fans want there teams in HD and all teams have all games home and road in HD NOW. other city's don't do that yet.

WOWer @wideopenwest.com	reply to imrf said by imrf : Quantity does not equal quality. Many of the HD channels airing suck in the first place so who really cares? This is a lame ass excuse for justifying a lack of HD channels. WOW's HD lineup is pathetic compared to their competitors. That's the bottom line.

imrf Premium join:2002-06-06 Utica, MI	reply to The Joker VS. probably wants too much for the channel than WOW is willing to pay for that 1 market. These sports channels need to pull their heads out of their asses and stop ripping the tv companies off, especially lame ones like VS.

The Joker join:2003-08-01 00001 1 edit	reply to Namrackg Verus is available in other WIDEOPENWEST outlets except chicago. I'm listening to the president of Verus saying it's WOW's fault for not carrying Versus in chicago. VS. says that they offered a contract and WOW is not accepting. This was on 670 the score interview on 5/19/2009 Boers & Bernstein 5pm Hour 5/19/09 Matt and Dan talk with Versus President Jamie Davis and also discuss the Chicago Cubs.
