The channel that left was the 24/7 La Academia (or something close to it) channel. Show is over.

| | Just spoke with a CSR. RTVI+ has been dropped completely, and RTVI replaced by STS (or CTC). The CSR was clueless as to the reason why. Hmmmm...

Hmmmm... | DIRECTV press released today they are the exclusive satellite provider of RTVi, so that solidifies the assumption everyone is making. |

I do feel sorry for international channel viewers - it's almost like you have to have both DISH and DIRECTV because it seems these channels like to sign exclusive deals with one or the other and then change them up at some point. I don't know why they can't be on both for the sake of their loyal viewers but the exclusivity money must sure be great enough to tame the desire to reach 32 million potential viewers by being available on both. |

| | | It is indeed very frustrating having to choose between the two providers. I have to agree that Internet TV now beats the competition in regards to international channel offerings. For the time being, however, my Russian family wants to switch to DirecTV, as RTVI was the last channel available exclusively on Dish that kept them from switching.
