I took up Dish to convert to the 3 month HBO/MAX channels instead of Starz.. It ran out this week and Dish simply sent an email that said if I didn't want to get charged for it, I need to logon to their website and turn it off. A message flashed on the receiver for a day or so too. I turned it off as it isn't worth anywhere near what HBO wants for these channels. Dish did not offer any discount.

If you are looking for Starz to just see Spartacus, be aware that Starz have given previous seasons to Netflix streaming subs a few days to a week after each episode aired on Starz. Which is why I chose not to order Starz, their library is available on Netflix.

Yup, according to this article, the Netflix-Starz contract runs out February 28.

By the way, when exactly will Dish Network remove the free Starz? I assume they'll remove it February 1?

You can use Dish Chat, or be smart and probably happier and use the DIRT team.... :)

Thanks for the info, I Didn't know that. Must be in response to Disney's complaints last year.

I think it had something to do with Starz' ridiculous 300 million dollars a year they wanted for a new contract.

Netflix had been paying 30 million a year.

I think Netflix was willing to go to $200 mil.
