I just found out that Xfinity moved TCM to a SPORTS and Entertainment package!?!?!?! [View all]

I've been on a little adventure, and just got home to discover this disastrous decision by Xfinity. Now if I want to watch TCM, I have to buy a package that includes mostly sports channels that I will NEVER watch. Although I realize that there are people, out there, who love BOTH sports and classic movies, I doubt there are enough of them to 'justify' this kind of decision. I think they are screwing the movie fans and I am FURIOUS. I predict major withdrawal, on my part, since I tuned in to TCM on a daily basis.

Although I know it was a waste of time, I fired off a blistering message to Xfinity and they 'assure' me someone will get back with me, within 24 hours. Apparently they've been getting bombarded with furious feedback.

And now I'm going to start researching alternatives to Xfinity. Anyone know of another service that carries TCM? We don't get Spectrum, in my area and I despise Direct TV. I figure that I am probably out of luck and I'm very mad/sad.
