By saying subscription, they're charging an extra fee to see that channel? I wouldn't care what it costs, I wouldn't go without TCM. I have Directv for the past 11 years and have Premier Package with all the premium channels (HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz, TMC) and HD Tier (MGM, HDNET, SONY) and with NFL Sunday Ticket it's over $200 a month. I haven't yet added the 3 new Epix Movie channels because I can't watch everything. As it is, I watch a lot of TV, so why should a retired person deprive themselves of something they enjoy that you can afford. I have a 75" Samsung 4K TV and a killer surround sound, without content it's useless.
Last month I brought up the movie Abbot & Costello meet Frankenstein. I have it recorded right now, it was on TCM November 1st. I have so many movies recorded both new and old and with football (NFL & College) and NHL Hockey, I have too much to watch.
