If you want LOTS of info on the recent blackout changes go to DBSTalk.com. There are at least two threads there discussing it. It is WAY too lengthy to cut and paste. It is in the Direct TV General discussion forum.

There were a lot of questions yesterday. I thought I'd run this by again.

What did they say about it in a nutshell? I noticed yesterday that the Vikes game was blacked out, although it was on my local cable anyways. If they ever black out a Chiefs game, there will be hell to pay.

If you get local channels from DirecTV, there should be no problem...you just watch the game on your local channel. Am I missing something other than the fact that it sucks for people who don't get local channels from DirecTV? |

DTV knew going in this would happen and made no effort to change their price or pass on this info to the customer.
My ST is already paid, but after this year you'll see me steal cable before paying DTV for ST....

Just an FYI
Games carried by the "local" (Shreveport) Fox and CBS affiliates were not blacked out the past 2 seasons. They were blacked out yesterday.
