It also seems that Anime Selects is gonna end its run today.
At least in my area, since they haven't gotten any new shows in the last 2 weeks, and all the shows up expire today.

I have not seen any anime in Comcast's VOD area for probably about a year or so now. Are you sure this is nationwide? I just checked again this weekend and didn't see a single thing.

You get the 1st episodes of D.Gray-Man and Devil May Cry for free but you have to buy the rest of the episodes of both series and everything else is free. I really like it though I have 3 anime categories I can watch On Demand and it's all for free!

I'm gonna miss Anime Selects. That was a really good VOD channel.
But, hey! I think this means I really get to see Monster later on VOD!!!
Gimme my Monster!

I noticed that last week I saw Funimation AOD in my area. The selection could have been better, but some is better than none. The only shows on thei AOD selection that I found to be of an interest was Peach Girl and Case Closed (Because of the former I ended up buying the series on DVD since I liked what I saw.)

I've had it on my Comcast for some time now. Close to 5 monthes I believe. But you had to pay a subscription. I've had the Anime Network for some time but the selection was pretty blah. I hope for anime select some are free. And it be nice to recent some of the movies. Good news indeed.

I'll have to remember to call Comcast tomorrow- we've had some very annoying problem with our local comcast moving to digital brodcasting- apparently, their idea of 'don't worry, your covered' means we lose half our channels one day, have to wait for converter boxes- which made me mad, I've got 9 videogame systems and no real room for another TV item, let alone making sure I could plug the thing in. Then after the call->activate->wait an hour for it to take thing... my On Demand doesn't work. *sigh*

Freakin' BrightHouse. Not only is their parent company looking to cap broadband (unnecessary, I might add), it seems they "pick and choose" what to carry based on costs.
It's no secret BrightHouse doesn't pay the same rates as Comcast, but still.
*sigh*
I guess the "We'll cut episodes from the listings" offerings from Anime Network is about as close to an anime station as I can get.
And please don't suggest Cartoon Network. This station is nothing but ads to me now.

Too bad they are starting most of the series over. I only had a few episodes of XXXHolic and Aquarian to watch when they switched it over. I wish they offered the subbed versions too instead of just the dubs. The Ouran High School Host Club dub is horrible.

Its not just great its comcastic.
But in all seriousness, this is a pretty big step for Funimation though.
