Thinking Choice Xtra - Changes 2/9 between Xtra & Xtra Classic
ADVERTS 1
With the 2/9 change to the new Choice Xtra package, there are channels being removed from what they sell currently.
If you ever thought of upgrading to Choice Xtra, and like any of the channels below, do it before 2/9 and be grandfathered under Choice Xtra Classic. These channels will require Choice Ultimate with the changes:
Boomerang
CBS Sports Channel
Chiller
Golf Channel
NHL Network
Sprout
Style
Tennis Channel
Also remember as discussed about a month ago, Cloo (formerly Sleuth) is moving to Choice Ultimate and will not be grandfathered.Last edited by dfergie; 02-09-2012 at 12:57 PM. Reason: i

Good to know. Now we know the difference between the classic and the new. The classic gets more channels for the same amount of money.
Ice,
Keep in mind, when your package changes to the classic you will no longer be able to make programming changes online. You will not be able to remove the HD Extra and add it back yourself.

I think my 3 months runs until end of month but might as well do it.
The only thing I watch on there is the wrestling reruns if I have too many things set on Friday

Two channels are keeping me with Xtra Classic - NFL and Golf.
I'm gonna hate having to call to make program changes though!
