NFL Channel On Comcast Not Free Anymore?
When I flip to the NFL channel it is saying I am not authorized. Seems I have had it ever since it came out. Did something change?

Yup. Sure did. You have to pay an additional $5. You should have received some mail stating that they apologized and it was all the NFLs fault.

Comcast is the biggest rip off. I wish the Fed Gov would purchase all the cable lines then open the crap up to fair competition. That would be tax $'s well spent!!!!

Interestingly, I found an article written just today about all the crap that the NFL Network has pulled with the cable companies. Although I'm not a huge fan of Comcast, it's pretty clear that the NFL is trying to push them around.

Well that's kind of like MLB making you pay to listen to an otherwise free radio broadcast via the internet. As if there isn't enough money already being paid to these criminals. |

They have a product. They are trying to sell it for the highest price they can get. Did we make capitalism illegal and I missed it? How exactly are they criminals? As for NFL network, fugg 'em. They said pay for it, I said I don't need it.

Damn, I don't know what you guys are bitching about, I'd gladly pay $5/mo to get NFLN. I don't even have that option with my cable company.
