libbie,

and I agree, but no matter which one you get of those others, the free stuff is always there and worth checking out.

Some stuff though you do have to go to cable or dish to get them. Too bad really. I get Netflix too, so that kind of makes up for it maybe.

Oh well, good luck in your quest,

d
