October 25, 2005
ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J. & STAMFORD, Conn.- NBC Universal Cable (NBCU) and Time Warner Cable, today announced a renewal for USA Network, and a carriage agreement for Universal HD, mun2, Telemundo Puerto Rico and VOD (video on demand). Additionally, the agreement allows Time Warner Cable to include NBC and NBCU programming as part of its Start Over service. When launched later this year, Start Over will provide Time Warner Cable customers the ability to restart enabled television shows that are already in progress. Select programming from NBC's broadcast network, USA, CNBC, MSNBC, Bravo, SCI FI and others will be Start Over enabled.
The deal also includes the rights to on demand content from NBC News (including Nightly News and Meet the Press) and for the first time, cable (including MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Matthews and The Abrams Report; and CNBC's Mad Money and Closing Bell with Maria Bartiromo). As part of the agreement, NBCU will develop interactive opportunities for Time Warner Cable as well as participate in several new technology trials. Time Warner Cable and NBCU already have deals in place for NBCU's other cable properties, including SCI FI, CNBC, MSNBC and Bravo.
"This multi-faceted agreement with Time Warner Cable demonstrates our commitment to providing our affiliates with the services they need to drive their businesses," said David Zaslav, president, NBC Universal Cable. "Customers will continue to have access to one of the top-rated cable networks on television, USA, while also having the opportunity to utilize new technologies like Start Over. Additionally, we expect Start Over will help deliver more engaged viewers to our advertisers. From HD to VOD and interactive TV our customers will get to watch the valuable programming we have to offer from news to entertainment in new and exciting ways."
"Once again NBC and NBCU have proven to be forward-thinking business partners - partners that share our desire to deliver consumers highly rated content using today's advanced services," said Time Warner Cable Executive Vice President Fred Dressler. "This agreement provides us with extremely desirable programming for Start Over, our VOD offerings and interactive television making Time Warner Cable customers and NBCU viewers the big winners."

Universal HD's line-up this year included the US Open, Notre Dame football, the series Medical Investigation and movies such as Apollo 13 and Mulholland Drive. CNBC's Mad Money with Jim Cramer @ 6PM (3/14/05-10/12/05) has improved the hour by 59% versus the same period last year and 67% versus the 6P hours delivery in 1stQ'05. mun2, the bilingual network that celebrates the lifestyle of Latino young adults, recently re-launched with a 100% new programming grid featuring all-new properties backed by a revamped look and feel.

HERE TO HELP YOU!
Cutting Edge
Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

That's ok, I'm sure Verizon will be happy to take them.

That is what I have to explain to customers all the time. They want it free with no ads
I have the Roku's, 2 or 3, I just rarely use them ... I prefer the Google/Android Sony set up.
People tell me that the Apps on the TV will end thier usefulness as they age ... They are doing ok for me so far ... I also have the TV take the App Updates whenever possible ... then again, I don't know how often App updates come to it.
So, so far, I'm doing ok, but if they start to get sluggish, I'll eventually change to a Roku ... I don't want to, but eventually ... (Or buy another new TV
The ads are boring and repetitive...same ad over and over...bring back 1970s ads..might not be as big an issueThat is what I have to explain to customers all the time. They want it free with no ads
