I was considering making a post about this earlier today.
Exactly the same thing here: everything now encrypted as of about noon yesterday, re-scanned and got 3 or 4 duplicates of local broadcast in both 480p and 720p/1080i, all channels bounced around, C-SPAN moved, etc. I can now watch Martha Stewart on 5 different channels.
About two weeks ago they bounced some channels around (MTv, Spike, VH1, Nick, Toon) and switched a half dozen to encrypted. Now they are all encrypted. Previously mentioned, plus ESPN, CNN, FOXn, CNBC, MSNBC, Hist, TBS, TNT, BRVO, Disney, Brvo, AMC, USA, Syfy, A&E, Life, FX, ComCen, even Weather Channel.
Now I have to use the cable box to tune everything but the local channels, use another remote (can't seem to get the universal to work the cable box) and put up with the associated waiting 3-5 seconds for it to change the channel and lock on. A real PITA. I am more likely to watch online (those that I can) rather than re-learn their new channel card.
