Comcast Cherry Hill/Mt.Holly area (Garden State) adds several channels.

In Cherry Hill, Comcast has added Oxygen, ESPN Classic, Great American Country, Telefutura (WFPA 28), Travel Channel onto its digital lineup. I believe TNT-HD (necessary for NBA games) is also a new one, and Universal HD to the system. I know the latter were on Dish / DirecTV. About the only ones (that are on satellite providers) missing are the Cablevision/Rainbow networks: Independent Film Channel and WE (Women's Entertainment).

Seems Verizon FIOS is pushing Comcast to be more competitive. Verizon Fios should be available in this area maybe in a year or so. Of course, Verizon won't have a newschannel or regional cable net. (like CN8) or local sports RSN (i.e. CCSN Philadelphia), as Comcast will withhold those channels.

Comcast in Howard County MD is losing several customers to Verizon Fios. Verizon Fios there carries MASN, NewsChannel 8 (from D.C.'s Allbritton company) instead of CN8, CCSN Mid-Atlantic (comcast has to make this available to all competitors), along with local Baltimore stations, the main D.C. channels that are significantly viewed, and a robust selection of cable networks, and international channels (as premiums) as well.
 
They also have Hallmark (full-time) on its own digital channel, as well.

Not to long ago, it was mentioned they added TV One, Logo, Sprout and Current-TV. It really looks like Comcast added lot of missing channels, like ESPN Classic, to fill up the lineup.
