Just imagine the cost savings by charging passengers a mandatory fee for updated technical entertainment services, but "neglecting" to have the services started up for the fleet! That is income without expense. Damn. I should charge the airline managers for my financial services!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Angiebaby]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2008 1:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[Boston Intercontinental anyone?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scott Kochman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2008 2:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[The upscale hotel I was at was so bad, youcould barely make out any station through the static.

I spend my days doing "business" and my nights are not always spent wining and dining clients or studiously working on my laptop but just vegging out after a long day on the road.  If you are a road warrior some of the amenities in a hotel are quite important.  I don't watch a ton of TV but after paying $100-$150 a night in a hotel I think it is fair to demand a TV that works properly and actually has some decent reception and a good HD channel selection.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Patrick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2008 6:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was furious when the beautiful flat screen picture in a lovely motel room, squeezed the picture so that I couldn't see the score of the football game I was watching last Sunday. It also did not show the scores of the other games in progress. I will never stay in a room with a flat screen TV , when I'm trying to watch a sporting event.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gerry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2008 6:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't give a rat's hindquarters if the room has HDTVs, CDs, BVDs, or the Heebie-Jeebies.

There are more important issues in the world than whether or not your tv has HD, as example; should you squeeze the charmin?.  Its not important in any way what so ever.  If it matters to you, you need to get your head out of your ass and look at what is going on in the whole world.  Not what is going on in your hotel room.<br>I am ashamed of my country when I hear stuff like this.  HD was developed as another way to take earned dollars away from you.  No other reason. How sad we have become.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2008 8:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[I feel ashamed of my country when I see comments like this from people online.  In other countries people would have more empathy, and wouldn't use their ability to post anonymously to disparage other people and make them feel bad.

You dummy.  How do you go from thinking that because that room resembles one of any number of hotels that they are talking about one specifically?  From there, how do you assume that they are making any sort of implications about said hotel?  <br>Talk about creating something out of nothing.  Incidentally, you clearly do not know what constitutes the definition of libal as far as the eyes of the law go.  You shouldn't be talking about libal when you have no idea what it is while you agressively defend a hotel that no one is talking about.  <br>You stupid fool.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ryan zyskowski]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 10th 2008 9:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hotels Upgrading Rooms With HDTVs, But Forget HD Programming]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/09/16/hotels-upgrading-rooms-with-hdtvs-but-forget-hd-programming/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oooooh, Mr. Wynn loves these kind of battles, ooooh, journalists everywhere be SCARED!!!
