So, yet another “service discontinuation”… It seems that Time Warner and KXAN are having problems and the result is that I can no longer watch any NBC shows. I have rabbit ears on a tv upstairs, but it doesn’t work too well. So I am missing Chuck, Days of Our Lives, My Name is Earl, The Office, and Saturday Night Live. I only like to watch a few shows and that is most of them. Now I have to watch them online or try to use the other tv.

This is an interesting statement from KXAN:
“Here is a basic analogy: If you were to get a drink of water at a public drinking fountain, it is free, but once the water is placed in a package, it is no longer free. The same holds true for local television programming delivered through a subscription-based provider.”
sooo… aren’t we paying the provider of the “package”? Oh well, same ole arguments about who owns the RF after it leaves the station… just like back in the day of cable descramblers, “who owns the signal after my VCR retransmits it?”, etc.
