I received a email from Directv saying August 14, they will have more HD channels. So whats that gonna cost ? $10 for the first HD pack, $5 for the HD extra pack, then what ? An additional $5 for the HD extra extra pack ? I only have the original HD pack, not the extra pack, and if they raise the rates, I'll never get them. I'd rather pay one fee rather than 2 or more. Mark my words - eventually, there wont be a hD fee, it will be included in your bill just like the local channel option.
