While watching The Score, I noticed that when I clicked the "info" button on my Rogers digital terminal, I'm told that I'm watching a "free preview" of The Score.

The last time the guide told me something like that, it was when The Golf Channel was being moved to digital, giving me the opportunity to pay extra for a channel I was receiving as part of my existing package.

Is The Score being moved to digital-only? I can't find any info anywhere on the Rogers or Score websites.

Interesting -- I was thinking the exact same thing... another chance to scrooge us on the price.

That being said, I don't think I would miss the SCORE. The programming is defintely 3rd in line when measuring the options out there (if not worse). I've also reached my limit on 20-something desk jockeys over-metaphorring every highlight.

Oh gawd.. spare me :mad:

If it is I would hardly miss it, TSN and Sportsnet are better imo.

The Score does offer a fair bit that the other networks don't, such as CIS Football (which I would miss dearly) and Premier League football not carried on Sportsnet. Plus, that ticker is pretty handy, even if they do clutter it far too much.
