I'd pay for Showtime just to support their decision to pick up Arrested Development.

i think if i just had fox sports detroit i'd be fine, but i would also pay for HBO and maybe the history/discovery channel or something

ESPN
ESPN2
Fox Sports Northwest
Food Network
MTV Jams (yes, it's horrible music mostly, but its actually music on tv and there's like zero commercial breaks, so it's great filler)
HBO
Showtime

The thing is I would be able to find a good alternative I don't have to pay for if they took away the stations I like most. For example, if they made you pay for ESPNews I would just watch ESPN1+2 or just use the internet. They make me pay for Comedy Central? I would just buy the seasons of shows I like on DVD.

Real dumb idea if they decided to ever do it. It will never happen so we won't have to worry about it.

Your still paying if your buying the shows.

rageotones · #19 03-20-2006, 03:28 PM

ESPN and the like
FSN and the like
USA
food network
CNN
the travel channel
TNT
the discovery channel
i guess NBC, ABC, CBS if you had to pay for these also

A prerequisite would be that they all broadcast in HD.

Science Channel, National Geographic, Discovery (all), ESPN (all), INHD (all), UHD, A&E (all), AMC, History (all).

I don't want this to happen, though, since I'm pretty sure my lineup would be solely channels that would die through attrition in a few years.

I'd pay $5 per month to get rid of crap like ABC, NBC, CBS, MTV, VH1, and the like. I'm pretty sure that our society as a whole is dumber because of their existence.
