I had a 501 (still do, but not on the account). I paid the fee until I upgraded to HD.

The name of the free HD promotion includes the words 'for life'. Though they advertised the no DVR fee back then, I don't recall it being advertised as free 'for life'.

Yeah, she's been slinging her series pretty well. These were movies she wanted for plane/train rides. I'm still waiting to hear from her as to what happens when she click OK. I'll report back when I hear something.

My daughter says the videos are gone. Now, she's not the most tech-savvy, so maybe they are just being hid until it reconnects. Edit: She sent me a screenshot.
