Will Verizon ever add AMC, C-SPAN, Discovery, and Hallmark channels to the basic (local) package like is provided by Comcast?
Only C-SPAN is listed on the comcast channel list, no AMC, Discovery or Hallmark, so I doubt Verizon would ever have those in a 9.99 package, makes your decision easy :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21697253 Wed, 07 Jan 2009 14:50:42 EDT Re: Basic (Local) Package Channel Line-Up http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21697228 N O Y B :

Update:

I checked out the channel lineup for limted basic for your zipcode, you do get CSPAN, some shopping channels, but not all the channels you listed

My very basic Comcast package for less than $10/mo. does in fact include those channels, and a few more. So whether or not they consider them local is actually irrelevant.

The answer is no. They are in the main package where they belong. The locals are where they belong.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21696643 Wed, 07 Jan 2009 13:12:32 EDT Basic (Local) Package Channel Line-Up http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21696614 N O Y B :

If they would I would likely switch.
