I didnt think they did as they only have one RSN (CSN Chicago). The RSN fee is for markets with usually 2 or more RSN's last I checked.

I miss out on a lot now that I don't get a chance to visit here daily like I use to. I'm glad that satellite guys broke the news first on the prices. This is the better site out of the two to get news/rumors for E*/D*. I'm sure Scott will be breaking more news first now and in the future.

If my regional sports fee is already $2, does this mean it will go down to $1.82?
Anyway, looks like my total increase will be $8 or so. $5 for the Premiere and $2 for the International package (which I guess I expected and don't really mind) and $1 on the movie premiums. Because my Sunday Ticket payment will end as well as some promotional discounts all around February, I think this will look like a decrease in my bill when in reality it isn't. lol I will consider dropping a premium or two or more. Thanks for the heads up!

the fee of up to $3.63.
Maybe now it's for any RSN over X cost? or maybe BTN is going RSN like? Or maybe it's an website bug?
Well keeping in mind that Peoria & Springfield have TWO RSN's (Comcast Chicago & FS Midwest) I checked our zip & it too comes up at $1.82.
BUT, when I checked a zip in a zip that ONLY has FS Midwest (Edwardsville just outside of St. Louis), there is NO added RSN fee.
So, I'm surmising that the reason for the $1.82 RSN fee, is ALL due to Comcast Chicago (& NOT due to the fact of 2 RSN's)...
Where do you go to put in zip code to see charges?
My market we have FSN South and MASN and we have not had a charge.

I wonder if I should get a rsn rebate from directv ? I live in Portland or. We don't get the PAC 12. (College) We don't get CSN NW ( blazers) we just get root NW ( mariners)
Your new monthly Regional Sports fee is [SUP]$[/SUP]0.00
hmmm... Tried both San Antonio and Dallas market zip codes.
There is only one RSN there.....FSN SW
I guess if there are part time ones you're safe (like FSN SW+ or FSN OK)
nope. Just checked a friends zip (Cedar Rapids, IA) and they get CSN Chicago with the package (shows 0.00) but with Premier they get FS North and FS Midwest fore the pro sports
edit: ironically I checked 60601 (Chicago) and it says 1.82
I guess I'd be happy that my bill "only" went up $2 (If it wasnt included in my rent)
My buddy sent me a copy of his Charter bill to show me how much its going up. He has just lifeline (which is locals, public access, religious, shopping channels. He also gets WGN & TBS in it) and has no other option (lives in an apt and too far from tv towers).
so his bill is going up 3.35 for just lifeline.....and yes you need the box. No box only gives you the Big4+PBS.
Scary part? His bill will be over $43 FOR LIFELINE

I have two "RSN"s in my market and the directv link said my RSN fee is $0.00.
I suppose there might be an exception if one of them is DIRECTV owned (ROOT in my case) or if the second RSN doesn't cost DIRECTV too much. I can't believe the asking price for ALTITUDE SPORTS would be that much considering the junk and lack of sports on it.
