**** you direct tv you greedy bashtards

 

[Gameface]

So you would prefer Direct TV pay content providers whatever they ask for and pass the savings on to you?

I'm on Directv's side on this, though I do miss Comedy Central.

Dish dropped AMC to so walking dead for me I also missed the first few weeks of SoA last year when they dropped FX. It's getting stupid, I chose a service and picked the package that had all the channels with the shows I watch, and they keep changing **** up on me. I didn't sign up for this.

Greedy ******** all around.

Although from what I can tell Viacom is just trying to get Directv to pay what all the other companies are paying them and trying to get a raise on the contract that was signed 7 years ago. They are asking for an amount that is 20% of the fee increase that Directv has charged its customers.

If you do have Directv definitely call them and complain/threaten to quit so you can get money off your bill, some free premium channels for 6 months and other stuff.

I haven't watched tv in at least six months. Wow.

(unless online streams count)

 

[Duck Rodgers]

Easily knocked out about 20% of the channels I have my guide set to. Biggest loss? This guy:

How am I supposed to fall asleep without my nightly Doug episodes?


I did get some money cuts and some free movie channels though in my faux fit of rage at DirectTV service people.

Yes. Now let us have some anti-trust laws to enforce this awesome competition.

this is why I have DirecTV - they are the only providers that you can haggle with. If you tell them you're unhappy they'll cut you a deal.

You can also haggle with Comcast. I've done for over 3 years, just act like you are really going to cancel. They have no contract deals ;D
