For those interested, Hustler TV is now available for monthly subscription. But it comes at a price: $39.99 per month. Looks like you can only order by remote on channel 588. Hadn't seen it mentioned so I thought I would post this.

LOL. "DirecTV Customer Service" is quickly rising to the top of most searched on Google this morning. There are a lot of PO'd folks around the country!

Also, this just in.... DirecTV has announced plans to air every game of the NBA Finals in HD!

Did you call in for that deal? That would pretty much make it a no-brainer for me.

I tried using apps once a couple of weeks ago, but the response time was so insanely, ridiculously slow, I quickly gave up. Anything TV Apps could give me, I could pull out my laptop and look it up myself in less time.

Sports Pack was in a free preview for a couple of days this week (odd that it is in the middle of the week) and it appears that it has now ended.

What if I order a PPV "All Day Ticket" on the web site, where it says that you can watch anytime between 6:00 AM - 5:59 AM the next day, and then I decide to record one of the showings? When does that recording on the DVR expire, at 5:59 that next morning, or 24 hours after recording it? Thanks!

D*: Sports leader no more.

Looking at the discounts you are getting on your bill (two AAA credits), I would just leave that puppy alone.
