Does TW ever negotiate to bring back channels?

I don't know if anyone will be answer this, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case someone from TW ever sees this.

Does TW ever look into bringing back channels?  I really miss HDNet.  I know it's a longshot, but wanted to ask.  I've looked at TW is the only major provider that does not have the channels.

HDNET was a combination of Mark Cuban and TWC not agreeing to terms, the response was so tepid from TWC at the time, about keeping the two HD channels on, it looks as though it many never be on again.:bang:

Everytime I read a notice in the website that a channel or channels I watch could be pulled, I cringe at the thought of not seeing these HD channels again. :(

But this action alone is not just TWC's doing, it happens with all providers, example being with Dishnetwork, which just lost several Disney HD channels recently.

The only way you can get all the HD channels, even in mid-2010, is to subscribe to a satellite AND a cable service, which for most, is too costly to pay, so you deal with the provider you have or switch.:cool:

It's especially disheartening when it was replaced with MavTV. *shudder*

No kidding, MavTV, really?   I can say I have only watched it twice, once was because I stumbled upon it, and the other time was when I told some friends about the channel and they didn't believe that they have a 1/2 hour show of women working out...

I've already signed the petition, but I'm glad you brought that up.  

If I'm not mistaken, HDNet was part of the HD add-on package, it wasn't part of the standard HD package.  

Please Time Warner, take Mav TV and put it away.
