Since I am completely connected with my DISH account, to my iPad, Phone, TV and computer, I am just going to watch all the games in HD for free! $3.99 is not a bad deal for those looking to watch online, but with my HD Free for Life promotion I can enjoy the games on my Big Screen. If I need to I can take the games with me on my devices, but I only usually like to watch the games on an actual TV. The small computer screen really doesn't do the games justice. Since I started working for DISH I have had HD, and now with the HD Free promotion I actually save $120/year getting the same great HD DISH is known for. This is going to be a great March; I just don't want to pay extra for something I don't need.
ReplyDeleteWatching sports in HD mostly gives you the feel of sitting in the front row and watching the game. The extensive channel line-ups in high definition and added benefits like entertainment on the go, Iam sure Dish hd will make my march a perfect month of games.
