So there’s a little excitement in our town because the local TV station may be dropped from Direct TV’s channel lineup. The satellite co says we’ll still get a similar station from a town only 100 miles away.
If that’s “local” I’m glad I don’t have to walk over and borrow a cup of sugar.
That’s not even the best part, the best part is we need a “free upgrade” of our equipment to keep getting a signal. But then we’ll get to lease all the new equipment – everything in the house right now is mine. If I want to throw it in the street tomorrow and run it over with a truck, nobody would care. And the upgrade means I’ll lose my beloved Tivos – season pass and all.
They haven’t said (yet) how much it will cost to lease the new equipment that won’t get my local channel that I’m kinda fond of. I’ve got to decide if it’s worth over $100 a month just to be sure we can get Sponge Bob and the Wiggles.
