I inherited the previous tenant's cable package and when I called to get rid of HBO/HBO OnDemand (reason given: I just don't watch it), they made me 2 offers. First, Showtime/Showtime OnDemand at no extra cost (didn't specify how long). And when I rejected that, they offered dropping the DVR from $12.95 to $5. Figured folks who want to keep their HBO can get a bit more/save some money.
