Much music?

[NGeorge]

I've always thought it would be nice if D* would pick up at least the closest CBC affiliate in the northern DMAs--Comcast has the Vancouver one, in HD, across the entire Seattle DMA. I'm on the south end of the Seattle DMA--and getting CBUT, as well as KVOS (MeTV--which if you've never seen it is like how TV Land used to be before they screwed it up) and NWCN was one of the nice things I realized I picked up when I had to go back to cable (although I lost Smithsonian which does truly suck since History has went to garbage). I noticed E* has picked up KVOS and NWCN, but I don't think CBC is going to happen until D* works out NWCN and other US based news channels (so far it hasn't happened--maybe they got out of it in their latest negotiations with Belo?).

The problem with CTV, Global etc. is that they carry a LOT of American programming (Global basically looks like Canadian Fox). CBC is mostly news/purely Canadian shows, although CBUT does run Jeopardy at the same time as KOMO.

I'm still adjusting to Comcast's thoroughly screwed up channel numbers (they've basically thrown everything together between 100 and 750 with no rhyme or reason, with HD in the 6 and 700's) -- but with the latest Tivo Premiere update the other day it's quite tolerable (at least for 2 years if I can't talk them down from doubling my bill then).

As for MUCH, I definitely liked it better than MTV--but as previously mentioned it was just a "licensed name" like a lot of the Canadian channels with US names are, and it was just a matter of time for when they would screw it up.

cable companies near the border do carry CBC and in some cases CTV too

Comcast in Burlington VT has those two and SRC, as well. (all SD, but better than nothing!)

Bell doesn't carry MuchLoud or MuchMore Retro as they removed them in Sept. 2007. Shaw Direct doesn't have them either

I know...but they were good channels

I know and I wish Bell would carry them since they now own the channels!
