Time Warner Cable customers may soon be trading Style for Speed. The channels, that is.
As we previously reported, the Style channel will be exiting the standard cable lineup for digital variety on March 16th. But later in the month on March 29th, the Speed channel will be exiting the digital variety and digital sports packages, and will become "available to all Standard customers with digital equipment," according to Time Warner Cable's website.
Also on March 29th, Nat Geo Wild will join the digital variety package on channel 141, taking the place of the soon-to-be-folded Fox Reality channel. Fox Soccer Plus will also debut on channel 339 as part of the digital sports package.
Also alluded to in the latest website update are two more HD channels planned for the near future. Fox Soccer HD and Hallmark HD are mentioned as future additions, joining the previously announced Sho Showcase HD, HBO Signature HD, and HBO Comedy HD. No dates are given for the HD adds.

Ooooops! Sorry about that. I'm guessing THIS Hallmark HD channel's programming should parallel TW Channel 61, right ?
Right. I'm just wondering why
Right. I'm just wondering why it takes them so long to add sister channels, I guess it would be more logical to add them together. It takes them years to add the sister channels.
