EDIT: not that it even matters as I see now it's not available in Canada
I pay $20 for HBO/Movie Central with Telus, which is more than $18.80($15 USD)

I'm canceling with Telus tonight and switching to this for a few reasons:

- 1080P content with 5.1 (vs. 720 stereo sound on Telus)
- American HBO is still different than Canadian (example was the Scientology doc from last weekend that aired in the US but is 'coming soon to theatres' in Canada)
- Ability to watch HBO on my iPad while in the US (Telus app is region locked)
- Simply giving Telus less money, regardless of how much they keep
