Re: Why can't Shaw notify us we they change channel location
Shaw made the move due to overwhelming demand for more movies on Full cable.
Of course, you can't please all of the people all of the time. The outcry from Golf Channel fans has been strong. So strong in fact, I can't help but think these people need to get a life.... it's a cable channel.
But on the flip side; 59 channels and nothing on. I guess if it's the one channel you like and now you can't get it, it's a bit upsetting.
Hopefully when Shaw releases the current analog channels in digital, they'll also let us choose a more custom tailored package as well.
From what I understand, this may well happen this fall/winter.
Oh, more notice would have been a smart idea... agreed.

Was that a joke? All shaw did was move the specialty channels, like CNBC, golf and TLN (italian language) to digital cable, which no doubt gave it plenty of added value. They then replaced them with very cheap channels that show either very old movies or reruns. It wasn't to fill any demand, it was to convince more to go to digital cable.
Channels like OMNI and AMC are dirt cheap, they use old programming, I hope you didn't think that they were doing it to add value to anybody but themselves. |

that is the most ridiculous thing i have heard. from talking to other people, and my personal experience, i much prefer the two movie channels than the two channels that were there before. |
