Note that MLB EI and NHL CI are also listed under PPV, and I can't imagine they'll be PPV. Looks like a bad grouping to me. | |

| Re: New Channel Realignment? said by matcarl :MLB EI & NHL CE are PPV packages. They do belong there. Huh? They're sports subscription packs, which means they're like a premium channel. I've never heard of a provider charging you per view for one of those packages. Granted, they charge you per season... but not per view. | |

3 edits | Re: New Channel Realignment? They are subscription packs per season, correct. My last provider had it under PPV. You have to "pay" every year to "view" it. It is considered PPV rather than a sports pack where you pay every month with your bill. You have to renew every season if you want it. | |

It is considered PPV rather than a monthly sports pack. Ok, our understanding is the same, then. I've just never seen them listed under PPV before. I guess to me PPV is just that pay per view - watch the event while it's on, and that's it. | |

I've just checked the Message Center. Nothing about new/rearranged channels/new HD BUT there is a message about the new VOD website stuff...
Also checked channel 49 but nothing there other than the scrolling Weather HD ad...Where else should I check? | |

This seems to be less than 30 days away for Indiana .. The advance notice requirement is typically 30 days, AFAIK, but this depends on the local franchise rules. Maybe the Fort Wayne franchise rules don't require 30 days. Or Verizon posted an announcement in the Saturday or Sunday paper in Ft. Wayne to meet the legal requirement, but no one who is a dslreports poster noticed it. | |

No, I have not received a written notice yet (I'm in northern VA). However, a notice was posted to the STB back on May 21 that Fios was going 100% digital in July. Check the Message Center on your STB/DVR. Also, people in MD have reported getting notices, so I figured they missed me in the mailing list. | |

| Re: New Channel Realignment? The analog channels were turned off here on the NJ system on Monday.
The letter said they would be turned off in June so they were right on schedule.
The programming has been replaced with a loop video saying that FIOS TV is now 100% digital and listing the options to view the digital channels. | |

I know others in Fairfax County have already gotten the letter. So I called up go digital number anyway and they didn't have a problem sending out those boxes. I ordered last Friday and received them yesterday (Monday) morning. | |
