Soapnet is a channel HITS has but there are no contracts in place for it for C band. It is owned by ABC/ESPN/Disney they have not been very cool with us for years so NPS said (probably BS coming from NPS, they lied about everything). If that is the case I'm surprised we get Disney XD and ESPN Classic but we do. I get all the Disneys & ESPN's including Soapnet on DirecTV. Soapnet is changing to Disney Jr sometime this year. I guess they want to compete with Nick Jr.
