Essentials = Nearly all the SDs (minus the 300-320 Sports channels and a couple other random ones) and your local HDs.

Extreme = Everything except for premiums.

My understanding of the FiOS TV Essentials package is that it just includes the HD versions of your local stations. I suppose that means primarily the Philly channels in your case. In my area, at least according to the guide, Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia HD is part of the FiOS TV Extreme HD package along with the ESPN HD channels and a bunch of other sports-related HD channels. Worth the upgrade price in my opinion.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21609257 Fri, 19 Dec 2008 18:17:54 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21608921 mewing80 : I am interested in getting the freedom triple play package for $99.00, I saw on the channel lineup that you get Comcast Sports Net but not Sports Net HD in the essential package you have to get it in the extreme HD package, was wondering if this is true or is there a mistake in the lineup?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21608921 Fri, 19 Dec 2008 17:20:31 EDT
