Does anyone here subscribe to Time/Warner's "On Demand" service?
Edited on Sun Sep-05-04 02:30 AM by VolcanoJen
I was flipping through the pay-per-view movies on Channel 1 (I think it's the same system-wide), and noticed the damnedest thing.

The movies are organized into genres... Classic, Comedy, Action, etc. While scrolling through these tabs, I came across one which was not like the other: "Election 2004."

Curious, I clicked on the tab. There I found every single major speech from the Republican National Convention. Rudy. Ah-nuld. Zell. Dick. Bush. And you know what else? They're absolutely FREE to view, no charges and you can rewind, fast forward, and watch to your heart's delight.

I don't recall seeing a similar offering on the "Movies" channel after the Democratic National Convention, but the speeches might have been there. I just don't know.

At any rate, I'm pretty pissed off about it right now. What in hell are the RNC Speeches doing on the Pay-Per-View Movies Channel???

If you've got Time/Warner On Demand, please take a look and tell me if you find the same thing.

:grr:

2. Well, that's encouraging!
But isn't it weird?

Welcome to the Ohio Forum... how on earth did you get here? :D

3. Another poster in a similar thread confirms the DNC speeches...
... were carried by Time/Warner a week or so after the convention.

Still, it just strikes me as goofy.

Wish I had known that, because I would have ordered 'em up and Tivo'd the Clinton and Kerry speeches, since I dropped the ball the first time around!
