Art, I know what you mean. I am trimming down and only keeping HBO, not Cinemax, Showtime, TMC, Starz, or Encore. I've thought about an annual for Sundance because at least their movies are a bit different, but not until fall. So come June 28, I'm down to just HBO after having all of them for quite some years. I'm still annoyed about the loss of Show HD East and Encore HD, E and W without any compensation and I will not support a company that is that unconscionable. I still watch the VOOM channels on Dish more than anything else at this time of year. And OTA sports and ESPN. Basically, if it's not HD I seldom spend a lot of time watching it.
