Ed, your post reminded me of how much cheaper it was for Satellite service, and how much easier it was to pick and choose the channels you wanted. Another nice bonus was that the major channels offered east and west coast feeds, so you could watch your program at the regular EST time, or tune in three hours later on the west coast time. I remember watching many movies on something like HBO east, liking it, and then tuning into HBO west and recording it three hours after it had begun on east.
