I’m going to amend what I’ve been saying about why I am hanging onto FiOS TV. First, now that Turner Classic Movies is in true HD, and looks and so good on the JVC D-ILA video projector, I’ve cleared out DVR disk space to record selections from the channel. Being able to watch something at my convenience, without keeping an eye on the “Expires in X Days” notice in the Watch TCM app is nice. So there’s that.
Also, I would like give a nod to Music Choice, which like Watch TCM continues to require a cable subscription.
My buddy Bismo, a serious Blues fan, says the Blues channel on Music Choice is very good. I have the same opinion of the Classical Masterpieces channel, which plays a widely varied selection of music. I first heard the Swedish composers Franz Berwald and Kurt Atterberg (19th and 20th century, respectively) on Music Choice.
