and if you have a dvr, you have to pay 6 bucks dvr fee and 10 bucks hd fee....which makes it 68.99...you may as well just get the plus hd dvr package for 72.99

No, but you do have to add international programming to get it. So, really it's $42.99, but I like it because unlike Choice it comes with Nat Geo.

Thats actually not bad, especially if you were looking to save money. It comes with most of the channels I would watch (Natgeo, Disc, TLC, Food), and its $10 in savings. Only thing missing is FX.

Can you HD service to it for $9.99?

Absolutely. It's no different from any other package they have, other than having to add an international channel.

Thanks, I may do that after the final season of the shield is over, gotta see it first.

Id rather stay with Directv, wasnt very happy with Dish's PQ.

Seeing that I can get the available channels in HD on the international pack, it works out fine. I still get the channels I watch 90% of the time and say a few bucks every month.
