HDNet/Time Warner Issues Continue, RAW Quarter Ratings, More

Time-Warner Cable's website has updated their message regarding HDNet, and it appears as if the channel will be gone by May 31st, 2009. They were going to drop service a few months ago, but negotiations between both sides kept the channel on the air. If Time-Warner Cable drops HDNet, this would hurt not only ROH TV, but also the numerous MMA groups that run on the channel. Here is the message from Time-Warner Cable: From time to time we make certain changes in the services that we offer in order to better serve our customers. The following changes are planned: * On or about May 31, 2009 we will no longer carry HD Net Movies on ch. 797 and HD Net on ch. 798. * On or about June 1, 2009 we will launch MAV TV HD on ch. 787. This service will be part of the HD Xtra tier.
