Are the music choice channels located at 97w the same as the ones that are on DirecTV?

I had heard that they were the music channels that used to be on DirecTV but were displaced when DirecTV picked up some XM music channels.

:lol: :lol: So in other words you only heard about them, instead of actually hearing them. :p

But I don't see anything on that site about those music channels. (Or about any of IA5's non-Globecast channels, such as Salaam, Fashion TV, and Daystar.) Do you have a way to get to the music info?

Yes, sat101, LyngSat is very helpful, but that's not what we were talking about.

Scroll to the top of this thread. Somebody asked about the origins of the recently added music channels on IA5. You added a link to Globecast's nice site. I pointed out that, from what I could tell, the Globecast site doesn't mention the music channels (which is a pity since they're on one of Globecast's TPs). Since you brought up the Globecast site, I asked where I could find the music info on the Globecast site. You replied with ... LyngSat.

I'd still like to know where the music channels came from or at least why they're there. If you can find a source of information about them, then let us know. And let's stay on topic, okay?

Are the music choice channels located at 97w the same as the ones that are on DirecTV? This was his question and I believe I answered it with the link to Lysat. They are listed on chart unless there is another company called Music Choice. Simple question followed by a simple answer. If the Globecast site confused you then sorry, I attached wrong one.
