I thought this would piss off someone else besides just me...

I have to pay extra to get TechTV so doesn't bother me either way :shrug:

 

[dreamliner77]

Get DirectTV, it's worth every penny.

 

[mooo]

[Jewelzz]

Get DirectTV, it's worth every penny.

I have cable, mainly for the internet. Not gonna pay 2 seperate bills

 

[dreamliner77]

I'm not going to watch it anymore ... was really the only thing I turned on the TV for other then "adult swim" (adultish cartoons on cartoon network for those not in US). I hope Comcast goes under as nobody watches G4.

I think this quote from Leo on April 15th sums it up ...

The future is still a little cloudy, however. Comcast assumes ownership of the channel a few weeks later and I have no idea what will happen after that. I am certain they've been impressed by your support for the show, however, and if that doesn't convince them to keep it on the air, I don't know what could.

Apprently they are all about blowing $ ... and hopefully sinking there own ship.

I won't watch TechTV anymore if they fire the hosts and get rid of shows like Call For Help and X-Play. Dang Comcast.

 

[X-Istence]

they destroy one of the best tv channels on the planet. Oh well, good luck to the people that work there, and comcast can go down slowly but surely.

 

[NerdUprising]

The brilliant logic of Comcast astounds me...

 

[Ketchupisyourfriend]

Damn. That's gonna leave a big gaping whole in my tv watching schedule.

I dont get Tech TV but I want it, but Id have to either get digital cable or a dish and my parents dont wanna pay extra for the cable. I mentioned my paying the dish and my mom doesnt want it attached to the house (go figure!). So I envy you guys, but now since this Im not so sure if I want it anymore.

 

[mooo]

My friend works there and i getting fired

 

[tdinc]

[Grandmaster]
