Epix & Dish in Talks

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yesterday I heard that the "deal was almost sealed"

What does that mean? I don't know, but I can tell you I am watching the uplink PC carefully today.

Some of those new HD test channels do have video on them and are not static screens. But since they are scrambled we have no way of knowing whats actually uplinked.

They can add Epix but I won't be watching it . I am not going to pay 9.99 or even 12.99 for a premium channel any longer. The only channel I will pay for is HBO when it is True Blood time to return for a new season. But when I add it I will have to cut back on regular programing , so I won't pay more than I do now.

So, if DISH rolls it out as a basic channel in a package you already have, you still won't watch? Makes sense

When I was growing up in the mid 1980's
The Disney Channel was a premium channel.

And that was when The Disney Channel actually had Disney stuff on it and was worth watching.

IF it is at a $ 9.99 premium price , I won't watch it.

I remember when both Disney and Cartoon Network were premium channels on a crappy no name cable system. What a sad time to be growing up.

When I was young,Armstrong Cable in Medina,Ohio used to make Disney channel a premium channel, if you didn't pay for it, it was scrambled, you could hear the sound but the picture was all lines.

Back in the day, late night Cinemax unsubscribed on analog cable was awesome.
