They changed the plan -- a friend of mine works for Cablevision and told me they were doing a change to the plan.

:-P

So the HBO channels are getting dropped from the silver package?

Unfortunately it appears so.

I think it's a way to get people to just go to the Gold package. Because you can get the silver and add HBO for $14.95 but for $5.05 more you can just get the Gold and it will include TMC & Cinemax.

If you want HBO only it's probably cheaper just to buy that channel seperately.

That's what we do with showtime. Instead of getting the package that includes showtime (used to be 25 dollars extra a month) it's 10 dollars a month to add just the showtimes.

Then again, maybe they changed that too.

it's not

I had just HBO

then I swicthed to all the movie channels

then I tried to switch back to just HBO

and it was cheaper to keep them all and drop the on demmands to save a little
