DIRECTV Mix channels offer customers the ability to view up to six live channels, all on one screen. Customers with interactive-enabled DIRECTV receivers can use their remote control to listen and direct tune to any of the channels on the screen.

The DIRECTV Mix channels include:

glimpse of the most current news stories from the most widely
viewed news networks, such as CNN, Headline News, CNBC, MSNBC,
Fox News Channel and The Weather Channel.

-- DIRECTV Sports Mix - DIRECTV Channel 104 - Delivers the best
in televised sports - customers are able to see popular game
match-ups and get a current look at what's on in televised
sporting events from networks, such as ESPN, ESPN2, The NFL
Network, The Golf Channel, The SPEED Channel and Outdoor Life
Network.

-- DIRECTV Kids Mix - DIRECTV Channel 111 - Offers families a
snapshot in to the most popular children's television networks
available, such as Animal Planet, The Disney Channel, Toon
Disney, Cartoon Network, Noggin and Nickelodeon.

DIRECTV Sports and News Mix channels are hosted by DIRECTV anchors -- based at DIRECTV's Los Angeles Broadcast Center (LABC) -- who give customers top headlines and highlights, and help them plan their TV viewing.

How many people will watch these channels? I just think it is a waste of valuble channel spaces for programing that customers would want, or been begging for. I think they are trying to coming up with some added features that Dish network does not offer, so they can place ads all over the place, that they are offering something "NEW" to the channels. I wish they would add more movie channelss, or at least offer channels for the "TIVO" type people. At least that would be "NEW" to make it differant to customers.
