It looks like all of the HD Extra channels will also be grouped together. This maybe good to keep them together, but I prefer to have them next to similar type channels, such as Palladia being next to all of the other music video channels.

If you read between the lines it looks like they are adding some HBO and Cinemax channels. Why else would you need added channel spaces?

Yes, this leaves enough room for all 14 HBO channels and 10 Cinemax channels.

Got to be a misprint. The channel is still listed on D*'s website.

Maybe now some of the whiners will quit saying - D12 is ONLY going to be used for 400 HD PPV channels and 3D channels.

They will say that instead of putting channels like Travel Channel HD up they now have 24 new premium channels.
No matter what new HD channels they add some folks will not be happy and will say that their HD channel they want isn't there.
As I have said before but will say it again now... HD is like sex... no matter how much you have you always want more.Scott

Many D* subs were unhappy E* had a better premium selection (and I mean HBO and Cinemax, specifically) and then the price hikes went in without any channel additions.
