When _ALL_ subscribers get the channel as basic or enhanced-basic 
interruptions would be acceptable, _BUT_ when Time Warner Cable charges me 
$11.45/month for the DISNEY channel, I expect the _SAME_ "_NO_INTERRUPTIONS_" 
treatment afforded HBO/Cinemax/Showtime/TMC subscribers!
_ANY_ executive who allows program interruptions [even for self-promo hype] 
on a "_PREMIUM_" channel is like "Rattigan" [Great Mouse Detective] a 
_SLIMEY_CONTEMPTABLE_SEWER_RAT_. Even _MICKEY_EISNER_!!!
