I guess equally likely, he was looking for a way to expand the services offered so that he could charge exhorbinant rates for them and lord it over all us Cablevision customers that there were more services we couldn't afford
Of course, even if I did order VOD, I'm sure it would take two months to install, and I'd get a fee for my name being on the install waitlist...par for the course Dolan, par for the course'>Are you sure Dolan wasn't scoping the babes? Maybe warming up for another harrassment suit?
