WHAT IS GOING TO BE THE FUTURE OF SUBCHANNELS ?

[localclassictvfan]

I bought mine in August 2014 the now 169.99 one. I am satisfied.

I bought 3 Roamio basics for $100 each plus the $399 each for lifetime and got one of the $299 specials on the Roamio OTA too in the last 4 months. Well versed in the Tivo landscape now

The sub-channels buy the syndication/rerun rights. It is generally more lucrative for a company to sell the syndication rights than it is to run a network with all the headaches involved and buy their own rerun rights (yes, they would have to buy their own programs to reair), find advertisers, get distribution.
Nick at Nite/TV Land could buy any programs they like. They are owned by Viacomm/CBS and could buy whatever syndication rights they want. They choose to play back what they play back because according to their marketing department, they get more viewers and make more money. Just that simple.

It's no wonder TV Land turned its back on its original premise.

That is a lot of TiVo power...

I can thank Dish for that. Not providing guide info for all locals and subchannels pushed me over the edge, along with the PalDvr my mom was using at my lake house was starting to have some problems.

I bought a Roamio Basic for her and liked it so much, I bought one for myself. Then I thought my Dad would like one for our Condo in Vegas, which has a PalDvr and we use sling on WDTV's back to our Dish receivers in Oklahoma when one of us is out there, so I bought another one on sale. Well he liked it so much he wanted another one for his house here and I was lucky to catch the $299 lifetime included sale on the Roamio OTA. Now throw in 2 mini's for my home and a mini for Las Vegas along with a Tivo stream for my dad and stepmom and you can see I have a Tivo addiction now and Dish is hanging on with a very very thin cable.

As long as they keep offering me discounts to stay, my one remaining Dish account will remain for the 3 shows I watch on cable along with college football and some Nascar, plus after 17 years I still like Dish and the channel groupings better than Cox or Directv.

With Tivo adding Plex support this past week, I added Plex server to my setup running off my NAS. So now I can access everything off my NAS on the Tivo without switching to another device.

What would be nice if tivo or any other streaming device had access to all these multicast diginets. If we have to pay 20 a month fine....

I wish having ZUUS Country & Heartland TV both Music programming brings to Portland OR's sub channels on any Portland TV Marketing! I do not know which if they accept or whatever on their making decision. Any developing news of add sub channels in Portland TV Marketing as upgrades, construction TV station, Broadcasting expansion, and other events in Portland, OR so let me know? Smile!

TiVo supplies guide data for all OTA subchannels in my area, and will record them just fine.

no what he is saying is he wishes all were readily available on a streaming device
