One way is in the sense, IIRC, that requiring the baseball channel in standard cable packages was a hangup in negotiations for awhile. So NBC/Universal requiring all 4 channels up front could be causing similar problems. Personally think all 4 would be a good idea to have. But as Confucius say, the devil is in the details.

You supposedly can't split the bundle up or only pick and choose what you want.

My bad, it is CNBC not MSNBC that they want the cable company to bundle with SciFI ,USA, and Bravo HD.

NBC/U has the Olympics this summer. They want MSOs to carry the HD feeds suite. The games will be on CNBC+, BravoHD, UniversalHD, and USA-HD. As well as Telemundo.

What does NBC have to do with the SciFI channel?

Universal owns both of them.

Fine, either they put the Olympics in HD on UHD or I watch them on NBC...

BTW Comcast has UniversalHD and USA-HD without MSNBC-HD and BravoHD.
Of course their DVR's are a piece of **** for $17 a month....

Yeah...and shame on the MLB...which there is a solution for.

For what it's worth (not much I suppose) the CSR this week said the Sci-Fi Hd channel would begin in February. I probably should have asked if she means this year. (lol)
