Anyone else have Dish Network?

Last night messages popped up during Mad Men that they were dropping the AMC family of networks cause of another stupid contract dispute.

I hadn't heard until then. Thing is I've heard it wasn't supposed to happen till the end of June.

But I was watching "The Killing" at around 12:30 CT and the feed cut out and turned into HDnet.

So did you all lose it too or those billionaire assholes just picking on me? I see nothing about it on twitter.

Looks I'll have to torrent the season finale of Mad Men. Fuck!

I find out what they did is change the channel number to 9609, without announcing they were gonna do that. No one has even upgraded Wikipedia. Bastards.

reception every time it rained or clouded up. I now have Comcast cable and am quite happy with it.

last week there were duplicates @ 380 and someplace in the 9000s. Haven't checked to see if they were gone also
