Sounds like a netflix box without the big selection...but maybe the quality will be better (couldn't be much worse).

Not Worth an extra $10.00 a month on the cable bill. Epix doesn't even listen to what the people want to see. We pay Verizon out the A*S now for cable for a bunch of nothing channels now and relentless repeats each month. I remember when TV was free to watch now it's a monopoly of cable companies trying to see who how much they can screw out of the most money per month.
