I think Netflix is still preferable for most viewers, primarily because most of these channels alter the movies and eliminate picture information. Tthe only ones that don't are Showtime/The Movie Channel/Sundance.  And IFC now has so many commercials and advertising banners splattered across the screen while watching a film.   So Netflix (and external, non-FIOS OnDemand options like VuDu) are the only way we can see movies the way they were intended to be seen.

That said, FIOS does have a movie package that includes most of the channels you've listed, except for EPIX..  However, it might only be available with a bundle (such as Triple-Play).  If it is still offered, a call to customer service should provide the additional information you'd need.

The more movie packages that you order, the bigger the discount. That already is in place.

I belive these prices are accurate, but its been awhile so dont hold me to the exact 

movie package --  $13  (starz, encore, TMC, Showtime, IFC, Flix)

HBO --  $15

Max --  $15

Max/HBO combo  -- $25

and if you order all 3 you get it all for $30
