Cool. This is my first year without EI. I will be up in Mammoth during this week so I will still be able to watch these games because of the free preview. MLB.TV does not work well up there since the internet is extremely slow

question

HBO and Cinemax (ch. 501-517): April 15 - 18

does that go through the 18th and what time do they nuke it?

Monday night there is a movie I want to see but it runs until 1:30AM on the 19th. Dont want it cut off during the movie

I was looking forward to the free preview to record Boardwalk Empire, but when I checked HBO on Deman it only had the last five episodes. What happened to the first episodes? This sucks!

Direct sure don't give you many HBO & Max channels considering there are 27 different ones. Why don't they give us all 27 like we got on C band? Movie services just aren't worth it.

I can't say definitively, but usually they shut the stream down sometime between 4-6am. You should be able to catch the movie without losing it mid-stream.

well no need to carry the west coast feeds of them when the movies are replayed ad nauseum

But you cant get any of them on C-Band now

I can still get them but the screen is grey It's a shame since we had 85 movie channels to choose from 1 year ago. There are a lot more HBO's & Max's besides west cost feeds. Same goes for Showtime & Starz. In fact H2H carries most of the Starz channels.

BTW Direct turns on and off free previews at 5AM here Central from what I have seen. Should be the same by you.
