Well we just lost 23 premium movie channels here in Rockville, MD. Almost all "west" versions of premium channels were taken away earlier this month. That means I went from 60+ movie channels to about 40 channels for the exact same price. Comcast used the on demand system to cover this loss. They said "Well you still have those channels (east coast version) and can get the missing stuff with on demand" I pointed out that I liked the west coast versions since I work late and thus could get to see 8pm movies at 11Pm. I also mentioned that many programs never make it to on demand. They babbled on but the point was "Tough. Enjoy the 60% price increased for premium movie channels."
