[I have received more than two dozen flyers from AT&T promoting their U-verse service in Houston. Some of these run 10 or more pages in length. In NONE of them (so far) has AT&T named or listed the specific channels included in the various service tiers they use to package their offerings. Their sales literature simply lists a price and a phrase like "Get up to 200 of the most popular channels everyone wants." When I talked to them about this they said they did not have any printed information like that. They did say that if I asked about any specific channel they would be able to tell me over the phone if they offered it and what tier it was in. I am no fan of cable companies, but I cannot imagine them not being able to supply a list of what channels were on offer in the various tiers.]
