Like I mentioned before about the rate increase, in another thread, as Austin, TX has these both new HD channels including the CinemaxHD and StarzHD (from awhile ago).

Austin's selection has A&EHD and MTVHD as part of their standard HD lineup with the local HD channels including Discovery HD and TNTHD.

They also have more bandwidth due to a rollout of Switched Digital Video, too, as I understand it...we don't have that done yet, as far as I know.
My assumption is this could be the "hold up" as to why we here don't have any new additions for HD channels.
Now, unless the TWC "bosses" here don't think us Wisconsin subs want it or they don't like those channels, we will never get these. Their CSRs are still clueless when I called them about it , too.

Other TWC locations have had the last two premium HD channels for some time, while others got ESPN2HD like Albany, NY, but that could  be due to Aldelphia zones mixed in with the TWC area, just supposing here.

Worse, Florida TWC areas lost HDNET/HDNET Movies and got A&EHD's stretch-o-vision channel along with the all-music HD channel MTVHD...IMO, a bad switch vs. addtional-only HD channels...hope that was a mistake on TWC's part, not a trend..!.:(
