What's the big deal, again? I don't watch most of those channels and I probably wouldn't even notice if they're off the air. Actually, they should just cancel those MTVs permanently.

The poors are going to revolt, you know. Little Jane can't watch Spongebob and Angsty Laura will be unable to watch Made or True Life.

Well, looks like I'll be canceling my service as soon as Direct TV can come out and install everything. I'm not too upset over this, as I fucking hated TWC anyways. My cable always goes out, HDMI cables do not work correctly with their cable box, they bill me for things I've never ordered on PPV (3 or 4x now), crappy customer support, etc, etc.

Sounds like a silly spat between two corporate giants that will eventually get resolved once the haggling process draws out for so long that it starts to hurt both corporate giants' bottom lines.

Much ado about not much.

Looks like they worked something out, because I still get all these channels.
