Not much on that list interests me.
Nat Geo music might be good. And the more movie channels there are, the better.
Fox Sports Classic could be good. But I am willing to bet it will mostly be old rugby league and cricket.
In short, bring back Fox Footy please.
Also supposed to be 2 more Fox Sports HD channels
Pics here (http://johnjet-sneakpeak.blogspot.com/) of a survey someone done a few months ago showing whats the new channels are. Don't know if the pricing that is in one of the pics is what it would actually be though.
Apart from TruTv I don't see much there.
Would have thought they'd put up MSNBC by now, but being Fox I guess not.

Golf Channel and G4 would be good.
More live sport, thus more sports channels would be good.

Golf channel will kick arse! Bout time.
Fox Sports classic might hopefully start showing some old footy games again.
Otherwise....its not really of much interest.

It's better than nothing so long as the price doesn't hike too much and they don't merely mirror the exisitng movie / sports channels (unless live sports of course).

Not all that much there of any interest.
Having all of the sports & movies channels in HD will be terrific, though.
25-30 more channels of crap, that people are going to waste their money on.
OOOH, but I have 200 channels, just a shame most are crap. :rolleyes:

No way, it's a lot cheaper & better value than Foxtel, but if you want to pay to watch golf, ROFL, then go ahead. :D

Yep. You're right, the only thing foxtel has on all of its channels is golf. I'm eagerly anticipating the new golf channel :thumbsu:
Read the previous posts about the new channels, people lauding how great it will be to have a golf channel, if people are silly enough to pay for that extra channel, as well as the other crap, I rest my case.
You people will pay to watch lawn bowls & tiddely winks next.
FTA, watch a few shows & some footy, rest of the time get off the couch & have a life. :D

So people like golf, is that a crime? This is a sports forum so it's likely there will be a few people that will like golf and like watching it. But to say people pay just to watch golf is a ridiculous comment, although from you not surprising. There's heaps "crap" on fox you'd never see on FTA just for example-
AFL-Live stuff thats only on fox, including on the couch and before the bounce which are real football shows, none of this Footy Classified crap.
NFL-yes ONE HD has some games but not the games fox shows
A-Leauge/Socceroos- only on fox
Premier League- only on fox
Cricket- domestic and international series
MTV/Max/[V]- music when I want it
Comedy- always good shows on at any time of the day, not a particular time slot
Bio- heaps of stuff you'd never see on FTA
UKTV- a lot of UK television never seen on FTA
ESPN- lots of American sports
News channels- news when you want it, not 6pm every night
CI/History/Discovery- again there's so much interesting stuff on these channels you'd never see on FTA
That's just to name a few....
I don't watch TV all the time but when I do there's always something on. I don't know what your problem is with other people enjoying it, perhaps you're just jealous because you don't have the money for foxtel.
No way, it's a lot cheaper & better value than Foxtel, but if you want to pay to watch golf, ROFL, then go ahead. :D
What's your internet plan then?

Sweet, more sport.
Hopefully FNS interactive means that you can choose the story that you want to watch and view interviews that you may have missed.
I like the sound of Fox Sports Classic. 90s/Early 2000s AFL games would be awesome to watch. Classic cricket as well.
G4 and Adult swim should be great.
will Spike take TNA or will it stay on FOX8
new channels for optus would expect fox to be alike
November 15th date expected

Im not changing and I dont believe Im with Telstra so it wont effect me, Foxtel have been overpriced for years and will continue to be. I've been with them 10 years and haven't had one "thanks for being with us" letter, discount, email, whatever.
They treat their customers like shit coz they know theres basically nowhere else to go for what they offer, and them bringing in new channels is just a great way to charge more.

Its called a monopoly.
Next week Foxtel steps up its response to the free-to-air digital expansion with 30 new channels of its own, although only 10 to 12 will have entirely new programming schedules. Foxtel will also unveil its online catch-up TV service, which will have an initial 500 hours of current and back catalogue programming.
Improvements to the IQ2 digital video recorder will offer more recording options from the main electronic program guide menu. Foxtel is also said to have struck a deal with Telstra that will make IQ2s broadband-capable and allow them to deliver online content to the TV screen.

i can't handle going from 1080i to 576p, hurts my eyes. :D especially in the footy
just saw the foxtel download thing as well. looks very interesting. wonder if it works simultaneously with your normal box... hmm...
I've also read that there is going to be 2 new Sky Racing Channels coming but i dont really see the point of having that many Sky Racing Channels. :(

Meh. I'd take that claim with a big grain of salt. There's no way they could afford to do that. They'd just lose too many customers.

Thats what i was thinking :p
i think the rise would be minimal
The basic price in the article is wrong it is $40 not $50, so i cant imagine that the information is correct at all.
Opps looks like optus screwed up we all found out the channels lol
Optus mistakenly put new channel details online
Subscription Television provider Optus have mistakenly revealed a number of the new channels that will commence on the service as well as on Foxtel and Austar later this year, before the expected media launch later this month.

CANAL+ (http://www.canalplus.fr/)
Arte (http://www.arte.tv/fr/70.html)
RTL (http://www.rtl.de/)
Deutsche Welle (http://www.dw-world.de/)
france2 (http://www.france2.fr/)
The only other non-English channels (for an extra fee) are RAI (ch942) Italian and Antenna (ch 941) Greek.
There are some real quality French and German programs that are passing us by.

Isn't there already enough racing channels? ****. What happened to the Fox Sports Classic Channel and the other one?
What sports are shown on Eurosport and will that be included in the sports package or as an extra like Setanta?
Do satellite customers get ONE and 7 when these channels come out or earlier?

Football from different leagues are around the world, like Bundesliga, Argentinian League, Brazilian League, League 1, Champions League. Euro League Basketball, Cycling - Tour De France, Handball, Athletics, Swimming, Tennis. Pretty awesome line-up of sport lets hope Foxtel don't dog us and not include it in the Sports package like they did with setanta...

You got where these are coming from originally? Trying to figure out what my options are as en existing subscriber.
The IQ Value packs could have been good since I don't currently have IQ but by the looks of it I would be forced to get a kids and music package and knowledge and adventure which contains absolutely nothing of interest to me.

Trying to figure out what my options are as en existing subscriber.
Remember that if you want HD content (thus IQ2) that you need a $200 line upgrade (assuming you haven't already).
The IQ Value packs could have been good since I don't currently have IQ but by the looks of it I would be forced to get a kids and music package and knowledge and adventure which contains absolutely nothing of interest to me.
Yeah, but with the price reductions on the vanilla mix and match package options you get these for very little anyway.
This is probably a carrot to get you to pay the $200 HD line upgrade fee, after which they will be phased out. The vanilla HD Sports package is $84 (Basic, Sport, HD, IQ2).
Anyone know if they will be offering more storage for the IQ2? 320GB for HD content is bugger all. TiVo offer a 1TB expansion drive, would be very surprised if there is not some sort of expansion for IQ2 on the way (Foxtel are useless bastards though).
Added Lifestyle You to list now has all new channels

They were only rumured at the start of the thread so foxtel might not have got the rights or may come at a latter date.

The New Channels Look good.
StarPixs looks great i cant wait for the bruce willis day hopefully they play all the Diehards lol.
I was watching all the promos on the foxtel website, the one for 13th street was priceless lol.
there seems to be a fair bit of new programing on lifestyle you(i think it was that one) they said is 95% new content.
the actual websites for the channels arn't all up, i couldn't get to the 13th street one, hopfully they will be up soon.

We Can't get the american versions of some channels because of rights issues, with the programs they show.
