Bummer. What about the "8 games at once" commercial I have seen...is that specific only to the NFL Sunday Ticket, or is that something within the receiver?

That is a particular channel.
It is available in the ST package, D* also has a Sports Mix channel, 205 I think it is.

You already started a thread on this very article. It was shown to be inaccurate. It is also almost 2 years old. Yet you ignore these facts that were presented in the other thread and try to bring up the same thing in another thread.

Those are the Game Mix channels for Sunday Ticket. MLB Extra Innings also has one and maybe NBA League Pass, but I don't know for sure. I know NHL Center Ice doesn't have one.

There is also a Sports Mix channel that shows 8 different sports channels at once, depending on what is on (like ESPN, ESPN 2, MLB Network, NHL Network, Tennis Channel, etc). There is also a News Mix channel that shows 8 different news channels (CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, etc)

Surprisingly enough big got himself banned. I don't know if it's permanent or not.
Maybe it was his math skills: 69x3=177!

 

[larryah]

Hes not very good with math either!

 

[bbixler]

A lot of gotchas\

after a year promo price, my price tripled , no lie!! tripled
69.. to 177.00 per month!!

The price doesn't triple. It CLEARLY states on their website that the programming package discount is $29 per month for 12 months. It also CLEARLY states on their website what the regular price will be after your 12 month discount has expired. It is not hidden....it is CLEARLY listed on every single package.

Choice 29.99 - Save $29 every month for one full year. Reg. price: $58.99/month
Choice Xtra 34.99 - Save $29 every month for one full year. Reg. price: $63.99/month
Choice Ultimate 39.99 - Save $29 every month for one full year. Reg. price: $68.99/month
Premier 85.99 - Save $29 every month for one full year. Reg. price: $114.99/month
