This is fantastic!. Until recently, I had a real problem with the fact that Dish did not carry BBC-America and AMC in high-def. Because of this I had to watch my favorite shows (Top Gear, Being Human, Mad Men, Rubicon) in standard def. NO LONGER! Nicely done Dish! I won't say anything bad about you for the next ten minutes.
