Adding Channels option

Why is it that when I had the Prime HD, I had the GMC channel, but when I UPGRADED (usually what is done to GET MORE) to the Extreme HD, I lost the GMC (UP) channel.  You usually move up on something if you want more than what you have; so why did I lose instead of gain?  Just put the GMC channel in the EXTREME HD package and I will once again be a happy customer.

Discussed to death.  Its the way Verizon has chosen to handle it , nor are the only cable company to do so.  THey have agreements with some channel providers to include their channels in the most common package.  The agreements don't require them to carry them in all packages so they don't.
