Canada doesn't affect Nielson ratings at all.  It's purely an American thing.  And a horribly flawed system at that

Yes it is, requires sports package upgrade for Uverse, TimeWarner and Comcast.
A premium channel is an a la carte movie channel ie: Starz, HBO, Cinemax. FS1 is just a regular cable channel which may require a package upgrade depending on your cable provider. Phone Post 3.0

When you have to pay a separate fee just for that channel it is a premium channel.

Did you think only HBO etc count as premium?
Who pays extra for FS1? It is part of the basic cable package as far as I know. Phone Post 3.0

That's how it is for me. I have a tier 2 cable package with Fios and I get FS1 and FS2. The regular cable package includes FS1. Phone Post 3.0
