Does this include those of us in the middle of a contract? My current 18 month contract started in June 2007 when I upgrade to the HR20 and Slimline. Will I be price protected until that contract expires?

Are they insane? $5 more for premier and it doesn't even include the DVR fee anymore like it did in the past.

All the changes from last to this year and you guys didn't expect a price change. HBO ? Maybe their prices went up? I guess I expect a small increase on items like this, what less than 3% on my bill, not really shocked here.

Contract is one thing promos another, I suspect that just about everyone is in a contract, I suspect that we are not getting around any increase.

If you object then the best option is to cut services back.

Unless things are changing, all existing Premier subscribers at the time of that change continue to have DVR service grandfathered in.

However, from an outsiders perspective, Premier really went up $11 since the DVR service was dropped.
