Hope you all know just by offering the channel, prices will go up universally... you don't have to subscribe to it. I'd like to see the cable companies record profits compared to oil companies. People scream about $4 a gallon, but they sure don't think twice to pay near $150 a month on HD-DVR cable box with one premium channel and $5 on-demand movie picks. Remember the time when cable was $30 a month? Seems going digital and high-def increases prices along with the new dozens of channels we never watch. But I guess it's okay, cuz most of us steal cable anyway. Great… another channel to increase our already overcharged cable bill.

So basically I have to get rid of Showtime and get this channel? And isn't it annoying how it takes forever for new movies to show up on Showtime? I already have this channel, it’s called Showtime.
