January Legal Notices/HD Anticipation Thread

January Legal Notices Thread

Next week, our monthly notices will be coming.

While we await the uploading of those HD Starz Channels (If anyone needs "Trick" information to get them, please IM me) that I correctly predicted would be announced in the last notice and word from Gary on Willow Cricket HD, here are some possibilities for The January Notices.

- Nick Jr. HD and Nick Toons HD which are now in play thanks to The Viacom renewal.

- Pivot HD, Revolt HD and Retirement Living (RLTV) HD could also be in play with the later a bigger possibility since we already have the SD version.

- Daystar is apparently not in HD yet and who knows if Aspire HD is really out there as no one carries it. Maybe with that national version of The Dodgers Channel we will see Aspire HD.

- Word from an online article hints we will be getting EPIX via the Viacom renewal in late-March.

Here are the channels on month to month agreements

Ecuavisa
Fox Life
GolTV
MLB Network/Extra innings/Strike Zone
Music Choice (Available in HD)
NHL Center Ice/NHL Network
Once TV Mexico
WAPA America
Yes Network (January 31)
Youtoo
Zap2it (Channel Guide for customers without a box)

- The only channel in danger might be Yes Network but I see them going MTM until baseball season.

- It's possible Zap2it was part of The WGN America renewal. Hopefully, it was so I no longer have to explain it.

- Outdoor Channel has shown up on some TWC notices so it will likely be up for us soon too.

Let's hope for some goodies but as everyone can see, the possibilities are drying up as Bright House continues to add to the best HD Lineup in the country.

This waiting for the additional Starz HD additions is getting old. What could possibly be the hold up?? I bet they had a number of Starz subs added for Black Sails. They might get more if the additional HD channels went live.

Gator,

I wonder the same thing myself and completely agree.

Hopefully, it will get done.

Yimitz just got the Michigan notice. A big thank you to him.

Willow Cricket HD is supposedly coming tomorrow along with...........

TVG Network (Horse Racing) in Standard Definition

MTM Agreements

-Yes Network might be pulled tomorrow but I'm doubting it as things have been quiet.

- Outdoor Channel's agreement expires February 28

They also are moving NB Sports Network SD/HD from 74/274 to 34/234 on March 1

In addition, they mention the Military Channel to America Heroes Channel Rebrand.

It's not Nick Jr. HD and Nick Toons HD like I was expecting but we do get an update on Willow Cricket HD and the addition of TVG Network.

Next month, I expect EPIX to be announced and Nick Jr. HD and Nick Toons Hd might come with it.

Here is Orlando's notice

- No Changes to The MTM's besides Outdoor Channel's addition effective February 28 and zap2it is still on there. I had hoped it would be off as a result of The WGN America deal so I would not have to explain it anymore. As everyone knows, Yes Network expires today but I expect it to continue on MTM's until Baseball Season.

On January 27, 2014, WKMG RTV rebranded to WKMG Live Well Network although some of us believe it's Heartland Network.

On or after March 1, 2014, WOTF GetTV will be added to channel 462

On or after March 3, 2014, They note the Military Channel to American Heroes Channel rebrand.

New Channels

On or after January 31, 2014 (We got these early this morning)

Willow Cricket HD Sports Pass Channel 1165
TVG Network Sports Pass Channel 214

That's it. I like how we finally get an answer on Willow Cricket HD though.

Next month, EPIX will likely be in our notice with hopefully Nick Jr. HD and Nick Toons HD for the kiddies.

It looks like the Yes Network deal closed with TWC. They also got a new sports channel FS San Diego come end of March. Terms of the Yes Network deal were not disclosed. It would be interesting to see if anything changed in ten years though, with higher price.(According to SNL Kagan estimates, YES garners an average monthly subscriber fee of $3.20, a rate TWC was not paying under its former long-term deal.)

As usually both channels are on the sports pak. FS San Diego could be added on bright house systems soon after.

Henry,

It has indeed. It's possible Fox Life's renewal was worked into the deal as well.

Because we have The National Version, BHN pays a lower rate. FS San Diego is not really likely as it is just another FS RSN and BHN systems have 4-5 out of market RSN's already and have not added any in 3-4 years.

Music Choice also appears to be off MTM's with Jewelry TV added.

That date in March is likely be a national TWC/BHN Rollout date.

I would expect it with Nick Jr. HD and Nick Toons HD in our next notice.
