[QUOTE="Greg2k, post: 809582, member: 346864"] Correct, I meant to say that supporting BOTH Hispasat and Astra is costly. I agree with you that Hispasat would probably be a cheaper option in terms of carriage, but the majority of CANAL+ subscribers were already on Astra before the decision to take HD off of Hispasat, so my guess is they did some math and came to the conclusion that phasing-out Hispasat was the wiser choice, since this would require less dish repositioning. From a customer perspective, most prefer to be on Astra. I know I'd leave CANAL+ the minute they decided to get off Astra, because the FTA programming on this bird is fairly decent compared to what's on Hispasat. [/QUOTE]
