I'm doing some reasearch and was curious if anyone here has it. Is it still on? Is it good? Is it successful? Any info would be great.

I've only seen the listing for it in Newtype... according to that, they play many series, but only like 2 episodes each month. So like, every time Azumanga came on during its first month, it would be episode 1 or episode 2.

But that's just the impression the listing gave me, I could be wrong.
 
I had it last year... since I am moving back to the area I used to live at I plan on getting it back in December

I'm not sure if anything has changed but I enjoyed it... the only problem was waiting for the end of the month for the next update

once you watched all the eps they had for this month you have to wait a month or two sometimes for the next eps. I hated that

I usually get new episodes every Thursday. I just started watching Comic Party and it's pretty good so far.

Go here and demand it. It used to be On Demand only but now they are trying to be a regular 24 hour a day channel but are having trouble getting picked up because the demand isn't high enough. I'm not really sure though if the channel will be free or will they charge or what though.

I'm also curious, what's so bad about the channel? I looked at the schedule and it was pretty decent, at least it has Robotech and G-Force. Sucks I didn't see any Ranma 1/2 or Urusei Yatsura.

What you're talking about is the "On Demand" Anime Network. There is a regular 24-hour version too that plays a lot of different shows all day long, and not just two episodes at a time. Check this link for info.

I'm not gonna whine and moan that they should start showing subtitled anime, I'll just pass on watching it.
