The following notice just appeared in medium-fine print at the bottom of my monthly statement:
IMPORTANT NOTICE Starting 4/15/08, when you buy a PPV movie, it will expire from your DVR playlist 24 hrs after purchase. Get more info at directv.com/ppvexp.
Now isn't that grand. Ordinary television shows that I pay nothing for stay on my DVR as long as I want, but something I specifically pay for evaporates in a puff of smoke if I don't watch it within 24 hours.
Here is the note I sent to DirecTV customer service:
Dear Sir/Madam:
IMPORTANT NOTICE Starting 4/15/08, I will no longer purchase pay per view movies through my DirecTV service. I have switched to Netflix internet on-demand service to obtain my pay per view choices.
