How does your foot taste Phil, Greg, Jay, William et al?<br><br>Did you read that post from aaron at pluto stating that sponsor(s) offered to pay for data direct/zap2it to keep it free? <a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/287094" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">

they offered to fund keeping zap2it free... But Tribune turned down the request since their goal was to make it a pay service." </font></font> </div><br>shows the exact opposite? There was an offer to pay for keeping it free and Tribune TURNED IT DOWN. And the "since their goal was to make it a pay service" part says to me there was zero chance of the free service NOT going away.
