I know there was some discussion of several new HD channels coming in October - has anyone heard the latest. I believe that some were going to be packaged together. Just wondering. Thanks:)
 
SRC HD, Discovery HD and A&E HD

I was on the *C website last night (Thanksgiving) because my DVR died the day of the HD Premiere of Doctor Who series 28 in North America.

Anyway, on the *C web site, they mention three new HD channels:

SRC HD (Not sure which one, probably my home city of Montréal) which is the French-language national network (equivalent to the CBC) which has unique French-language programming.

Discovery HD (Canada?) which is included in with the same package as Discovery Canada

A&E HD (Canada) which is included in the same package as A&E.

Although Discovery HD and A&E HD are generally included with their corresponding package, all three channels will be offered for free with the HD package through January.
 
Discocry HD

Where does it say that Discovery HD will be included if you have the "regular" Discovery? (
 
Discovery HD (Canada?) which is included in with the same package as Discovery Canada

A&E HD (Canada) which is included in the same package as A&E.

This is not correct. Starting in January Discovery HD, A&E HD, Showcase HD and National Geographic HD will be in a new HD Plus package at $4.99.

I would imagin that a subscription to Digital Favourites is required or you must have Primetime in order to get A&E and Showcase

I don't think there will be a linkage requirement for Discovery HD or National Geographic HD.

Discovery HD Theatre is a Category 2 channel - which means that a sat/cable company can offer it anyway they chose to.

Not worth $5 IMHO. I only watch Discovery.
