Ordering Pay-Per-View (PPV)
What is Pay-Per-View?
Pay-Per-View (PPV) events are special programs, such as movies or sporting events,
that may be offered by your cable company and billed as separate items on your cable bill.
You only pay for the programs you order. You can order PPV events by pressing a key on
your remote control.
The PPV symbol indicates PPV channels. Note: Your cable service provider
may not use this symbol.
