Default HRTV
my cable provider doesn't have it available to me, so i was thinking about signing up online, 9.99 a month or 49.99 a year.

Anyone have any good or bad opinions about this?

thanks for your help in advance

I signed up for a month to see if I prefer it and/or as an addition to twinspires which I already had. I still haven't decided if I'm going in for the 12months, but at that price it probably is silly not to purchase it.

Jeff Siegel's voice irritates me so much it makes watching HRTV more painful to me than it would be to most people....

Oh yeah, and even though some tracks are HD like Churchill - HRTV is not in HD at all.

I've got Dish, so I get both HRTV and TVG, but to be honest, I watch 99% of my races on twinspires. Take that $49.99 and make some wagers with it; you'll be better off.

Do you have issues with your video at times with Twinspires? Mine will freeze and/or skip.

I noticed it started doing that last week when I watched replays. It might have something to do with increased traffic because of the BC.

Is there any cable or dish package I can get where anything Joe Tessitore says is automatically muted?
I would be willing to pay top dollar.
