Your Cable-TV Network?

kl713 · Fri Mar 29, 2002 9:57 pm

I've heard several times that cable-TV costumers in the Netherlands have the largest choice in TV channels in Europe...

so, I was wondering....how big is the cable choice in your country, specificly to the place you live??

here is the choice i have at my place (Hoofddorp, next to Amsterdam and Schiphol apt):

Nederland 1
Nederland 2
Nederland 3
RTL 4
RTL 5
Yorin
SBS 6
Net 5
V8
Multikabel Multiview
TV Noord-Holland/AT5
Vloh TV
Regionet
Noordwest TV
VRT TV 1(Belgium)
Ketnet/Canvas(Belgium)
ARD(Germany)
ZDF(Germany)
WDR(Germany)
RTL Television(Germany)
Sat 1(Germany)
BBC 1(UK)
BBC 2(UK)
Cartoon Network
Discovery Channel Europe
CNBC/National Geographic
MTV Europe
The Music Factory(TMF)
The Box
Home Shopping Europe
Eurosport
Turner Classic Movies(TCM)
Euronews
CNN
TV 5 Europe(French)
Phoenix CNE(Chinese)
TVE(Spanish)
MBC(Arabic)
Rai Uno(Italian)
TRT(Turkish)

this is the network everyone can have for about € 10,- every month without some kind of digital reciever....

there are also 2 digital (and expensive) packages available, one with Canal+, and one with pay-per-view and channels like Sky News, Travel Channel, Zee TV and Bloomberg.....

what about your cable?? are you satisfied??

The list is a little tedious for most people to write out, but you can have a look at Zap2It to see what I get on my TV set. (I only get up to CPAC/Ch. 78, since I don't subscribe to Digital Cable.)

I had AT&T Digital when I lived in Seattle and I am NOT about to spend an hour typing out all the channels! I had Discovery Wings and MuchMusic. Nuff said. I just moved 5 blocks from my bro's apartment in Vancouver and we have AT&T basic (N400QX line-up minus CBC and UWTV). But I have a mini-dish. Wings will be back in no time!!!!! Big grin

I pay $78 / month for every channel they offer. Its AT&T Digital Cable in Dallas, Texas. USA.

I get those above in N400's list plus about 20 all movie channels, BBC, Discovery-Wings, Dis-Science, Dis-Civilization, some regional sports channels, and a bunch of channels where they offer classes from the local community college.

There are about 10 pay per view channels that have movies for about $5.00. They come on here about 2 months before they're on video/DVD.

My favorites are ESPN for SportsCenter, History Channel, TLC, and all the Discovery Channels.

There is also this built in digital interactive guide that gives you a full schedule and summary of each show & you can set reminders.

I like it, but I only watch about 10 channels regularly. The problem is that you have to get the full package to get the few channels I really like.

How much do you guys pay?

RogueTrader
