    $15 discount for current customers?

    Sorry if this has been hashed over already but I couldn't find the thread. I'm on HDAbsolute but my wife wants E! and Nickelodeon so I'm looking into Classic Silver 200 with HD. It looks like it wouldn't cost me much extra if the $15 discount applies. I chatted with a CSR that wouldn't give...
