so much Junk on the home screen of Apple TV, would love the ability to delete channels (I know you can set Parental Controls, but...)
So "hide" it in Parental controls and move on with your day.
bitch bitch bitch... :rolleyes:

SWEET! I CAN pay through iTunes... Just picked up some discounted iTunes cards from Best Buy last week! Deal city! Makes subscribing to Netflix and now WWE Network an even better deal!

FYI... the WWE Network isn't working right now. :P
I wouldn't mind not being able to remove of these icons if they weren't so ugly and promotional. Not to mention, they almost all require a cable subscription, which I do not have and do not want.
I would pay to not have this on my Apple TV.
Give me 10 bucks and I'll make it disappear off your Atv. :)
