Damn - I missed it!

TORONTO (CP) - Rogers Cable plans to offer a free weekend preview of two of its adult digital channels but stresses they have to be specifically requested.

Rogers customers in Ontario and part of British Columbia recently received a mailed flyer that promised the preview, to run from Friday to Sunday, for the explicit Hustler and 10X channels. It also explains to parents the seven steps required to use their digital cable remote control to block the two services as well as other Rogers adult fare, including Sex TV and Playboy TV.

But a spokesperson stresses that the channels won't just appear unblocked on the carrier's digital tier, but have to be requested using a four-digit PIN code.

There have been numerous free previews offered recently by digital specialty channels and, from March 15 to 19, Discovery Kids will offer a freebie to coincide with the school break.
