Missing lots of HD Channels

I can't believe that such a big provider is missing so many HD channels that I had with 

Comcast.  With them I had 100 HD channels scattered throughout Ch 792-918. Sure 

their guide software stinks, but I miss some of the content.

 

Were missing these channels at least:

E! HD, We HD, Style HD, CNN HN HD, Fuse HD, Investigation Discovery HD, 

TruTV HD, AMC HD, TCM HD, BBC America HD, DIY HD, GMC HD, GSN HD, 

Hist. International HD, IFC HD, LMN HD, Sundance HD and a few others.

 

Is there any hopes that DirecTV, the premier Satellite service get back on top with the 

HD channel count. It's bad enough you can't stream VOD, even though Netflix can do it 

across multiple devices.

 

Is DirecTV out of bandwidth? That was the reason Comcast was so behind, but then they 

removed analog channels and replaced them with 100+ HD channels.  I hope I did not make 

the wrong decision and go with a provider up against a capacity wall.

 

Thank you.  I have 3 weeks left to decide whether to stay or not.
