Re: New Channel Realignment?
said by JPL  :said by MichaelWacey :said by JeepMatt :Also looks like they are showing MLB Extra Innings, Center Ice, and Setanta in the 1000 range. Also, ESPNews HD. (Missed that one Mat).  But Setanta looks like PPV - that is just not right. I saw that too, but I think it's a mistake - or a bad grouping. 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. MLB EI & NHL CE are PPV packages. They do belong there. |

3 edits | 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. |
