Found out something rather interesting. I don't know if this applies to Rogers since they never used CableCARDs, but apparently this is a problem with older SA boxes. It is kind of a Y2K issue.

I am still on legacy cable in Scarborough, ON. I just got an email from Rogers that said: "Your account shows that your current TV Box with a model number starting either with SA or PA will be decommissioned as of April 30, 2024."

I just saw a post on another forum of a Shaw customer in western Canada who is being forced to switch over from legacy cable to Shaw Ignite.

Specialty channels have always had ads, even the most expensive specialty channels like TSN. And that has been the case since pay channels were launched in Canada in 1984.And linear cable TV is dying to a large extent. Sports is one of the few reas...
