It used to be Steven Soderbergh who could get away with bringing indie films to cable on-demand services on their theatrical opening day

Hollywood blogger Nikki Finke reports Cablevision charges $6.95 for either standard definition or high-definition, while Comcast charges $6.99 for SD and $7.99 for HD. Here’s a look at the current slate, which includes older films as well as new ones.
