bottom of the web page, such as a current DirecTV subscription and a

Comcast Pay-Per-View Instructions:
Comcast offers the purchase of adult movies through Pay-Per-View.
Movies are also available via On Demand, although they may not be
"adult" in the same sense. "On Demand" is not to be confused with
"iNDemand," a provider of pay-per-view content available through
Comcast. On Demand and Pay-Per-View can only be purchased using a
remote if you have a digital set-top box and digital cable. Online
ordering is not available. Telephone ordering is required for
non-digital cable subscribers.
"What is Pay-Per-View (PPV)?" Comcast (2006)
http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_182.html
"Pay-Per-View (PPV) is a programming option that allows you to enjoy
special events and movies right through your television set. Ordering
is easy using either your digital set-top box remote control (digital
cable subscribers) or by calling 1-888-COMCAST (non-digital cable
subscribers)."
"Can I order pay-per-view (PPV) movies through my remote control?"
Comcast (2006) http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_219.html
"As long as you have a digital set-top box you have capability to
order PPV movies with your remote control. Select the "Guide" button
on your remote control. Hit "OK/Select" until the PPV category appears
on your screen. Using the arrow buttons, scroll down to the movie that
you would like to watch. Hit "OK/Select" and an ordering screen will
appear. Follow the prompts. When you complete your order, an on-screen
confirmation will appear. The channel will automatically change when
the movie is ready to begin."
"Can I purchase ON DEMAND movies from your web site?" Comcast (2006)
http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_252.html
"No, but ordering ON DEMAND from Comcast Digital Cable is as easy as
choosing the program, selecting a start time and confirming the order.
All it takes is a push of a few buttons on your remote while using
your On-Screen Guide.
