I like the fact that hd net is separate in the essentials pack. I can still watch Torchwood in hd. I could care less now about Voom channels as they have become repeat city with the same two movies over and over again. I will miss MOnsters hd , but even that channel has become boring and repetitious. This is a good compromise for those who are tired of paying 10.00 more a month for stuff they no longer watch. | Just to clarify this post, the 8 states with Big10 teams will continue to get this channel with their regular programming.  |

Will Animal Planet be offered to us AT200 customers that keep the ultimate pack??? |

If you have NHL Center Ice you already get the NHL Network HD on 559, you won't get channel 403 if you drop to the $10 HD package. I am hoping you can still get 559 even when the season is over this spring and summer. I want to know why channel 559 does not have the 24 listings that channel 403 has! NBA TV is the same way, only shows live game listings on channel 560 and 24 hour listings on channel 402.
Scott?

I thought rainbow only sells them to providers when they take all 15channels and have to included in thier base hd package with no addditional charge.

only thing I am wondering about is the Big Ten network...? What package will that be moved to...and will it require a certain package or multisports pack subscription. Until I know that awnser, not making any changes. :-) otherwise losing only hdnet movies and universial..no big deal. If they had a cartoon channel, would actually consider going with the hd only package :-)

B_Kranski, this all depends on where you live. If you live in one of the Big10 states, I think there are 8 states with Big10 teams., you should recieve this with the AT100 package or higher. I believe everyone else will have to purchase this package separately in either the sports pack or some other newly created pack. Thats the way I understand it anyway.

My step father is in Missouri and he subbed to dish just for this channel. It would be nice to know how much he'll have to pay for it.

"– dishHD Essential with America’s “Everything” Pak – (28 national HD channels, as of February 1, 2008, plus any applicable HD regional sports networks) – Includes all national HD channels that are included within dishHD Essential and AT250 with the addition of HBO HD, Cinemax HD, Showtime HD and Starz HD."
This seems to say you need everything PAK to get HBO HD.
