DirecTV Drops G4. "One Of The Lowest Rated Networks."

DirecTV will not carry G4 anymore after negotiations between the satellite provider and G4′s parent company, Comcast, ended Sunday. “At this time we are no longer negotiating and we have no plans to put G4 back up,” a DirecTV rep said in an e-mail. “We are constantly evaluating our lineup in a new world where programming costs continue to rise at significant rates. Since G4 is among the lowest rated networks based on the latest Nielsen data, we decided that it made sense to focus on preserving programming that is more relevant to our larger customer base.”

I am not surprised seeing as they tend to do mostly Xbox stuff and seem to ignore PS and PC gamers.

i used to watch G4 when they showed game reviews, hint shows, and xplay.  But the whole ninja warrior, cops, and cheaters reruns gig was really annoying.
