No but if an OTA subchannel is going to pay tv somehow I would think it can be discussed here. i would like to see a link though.

Here's an article regarding V-Me's going commercial.

I wonder what PBS stations will do to replace it? The only other noncommercial Spanish language service I am aware of is HITN ( www.hitn.org ). I suspect that many PBS stations, unless they already have a separate Kids channel, are likely to use the empty slot to carry the new PBS Kids 24/7 channel. However, I personally wish they'd consider adding at least 12 hours a day of either the World Channel or MHz WorldView.

That sounds most likely. That is, V-Me will most likely either be replaced by the new PBS Kids or go dark on many affiliates.

First Nature Experience? Weather?

My bad I just posed the same thing from a different link.

Vme is not the only sub that is getting replaced by the 2 hour kids. Encore, Worldview and a few others.

It would be great if more PBS stations would pick up FNX (fnx.org) even if for a 12 hour time slot.

I asked my local V-Me affiliate, WFYI and they said their V-Me subchannel change (to something else?) will take place in March. They also said more details would be forthcoming.
