to me there's a lot MORE streaming content now then there was before, granted to each their own tastes, but I found it cool as hell that they now have all the old cartoons from the 60's and 70's in the streaming section (Archie, Sabrina, Casper, Mr.Magoo for example) they also added Fat Albert, The Munsters and The Adams Family not too long ago.

What IS starting to become very interesting though is all the cable stations now doing streaming... HBO GO, EPIX, (and Starz may be doing it to) we're getting more and more choices.

I searched before I responded an again after you posted. Not once have I seen anything backing up what you say. Everything I have pulled up states that STARZ backed out of negotiations. I can find no info or news stating that they've all gone back to the table for discussions and no evidence of a contract renewal.

I also don't remember any titlesdisappearing. The contract wasn't up until the end of January. My kids have been watching the same Disney flicks for months. Ad the Disney stuff comes FRO STARZ.

If you have a link...please pass it along.
