If Hasbro wanted can they change the HUB from cable/satelight tier 4
to tier 1,so almost everyone can watch the HUB programs with cheaper
priced plans. why is the hub on a exspensive tier 4 priced
plan? was discovery originally on tier 4 before hasbro merged with them or bought them out?

The sucesss of cartoon network when it first came out. was that it was
on a cheaper priced tier for cable & satelight/whatever users.

my guess is when Hasbro took over or merged with discovery to create
the hub network. someone didn't bother to change the tier price plans
& kept it at the highest elite priced tier 4 that discovery originally
had it.

Personally it would benefit hasbro more if they lowered the hub
network tier from 4 to tier 1 . so almost everyone with cheaper
priced cable plans/tiers can watch the Hub network shows/cartoons.

I already have a decent cable plan that includes the Hub. I was just a
bit dissapointed that others with cheaper cable/satelite/dish plans/
tiers were un-able to watch the Hub network & its shows/cartoons.

I created this thread to try to ask hasbro to please change their tier
4 plan to tier one so almost everyone can view the hub network in
america.

Perhaps we can get a petition going on this site & other TF message
boards to convince hasbro to lower their hub network tier from 4
to tier 1.

I have no idea what you're talking about with the tiers, but my basic cable package gives me Hub. I think this is up to the cable provider, not Hasbro.

Yeah I got Discovery Kids on my basic satellite package, so had I not canceled it I'm sure I would have gotten the Hub.
