[DIRECTV] Programming Choices

I've been a DTV subscriber for ~12 years.

I received the email notice of the price increase, so I thought I would take a look at what I have, and see if I need to adjust my package content.

Usually I am pretty good at figuring things out, but after going through the programming packages on the web site, I find myself quite confused. Nothing seems to compare with what I have for some reason.

Here is what I have - as listed on my latest statement:

Total Choice 44.99
Networks (x4) @2.25 9.00
DVR Service 5.99

I don't see any networks listed as extra in any packages.
I don't see DVR service as extra in any packages.

Maybe I should just leave well enough alone?
Or do I need to go through and write down all the channels that I like, and see if I can come up with a similar package?

I guess I first looked at this because of the price increase, but since I can't find my Total Choice package, how do I know what my increase will be?

I believe you get it at your billing cycle or if you receive a paper bill, as an insert when you hit your feb billing cycle.
