0Lord, khoff, now there's dozens. In negoatiating with my cable provider ("So Verizon would like to offer me phone, Internet, and Direct TV..." was how the conversation started), I got free HBO for a year. There's the HBO on demand, the HBO high-definition, and a whole bunch of other ones I haven't figured out yet. 02br

00Even so, I'd say "on HBO" just like you did.0-
