Velocity Channel is owned & ran by the Discovery Network, it's in a upper teer HD/Digital sports type packages usually, Time Warner Cable {I think it is} & the CBS affiliated networks, are in a big freaken' pissing match back east, CBS allegedly wants an additional, $8 from each & every one of their cable subscriber, just to air CBS {which use to be free, paid for by advertisement $$$'s}... greed simply freaken' CBS greed... I don't think they are affiliated with Velocity/DN but, it's a vague coincidence, they're probably part of the package offered... We have Comcast/Infinity where I live, they are still on here, pricey cable, but I'm 3000 mile west... that's the only thing I've heard or read about anyway... according to the Wall Street Journal, I think is where, I read or saw it...
