The biggest news came that year, when Lionsgate announced they were to acquire the company for $4,4 billion. Lionsgate's previous premium TV attempt, Creator/{{Epix}}, was formed in 2009 by Lionsgate, Creator/{{MGM}} and Creator/{{Paramount}} after pulling their films from Creator/{{Showtime}}, but it hasn't seen much success (Comcast and [=DirecTV=] outright refused to carry the Epix networks at launch). More recently, Starz decided to do what HBO had done and launch a standalone streaming service; but as a result, Comcast subscribers can't use their login info to access their new service (and ironically led to friendlier relations between Comcast and Epix). In 2017, MGM would buy Lionsgate and Creator/{{Viacom}}'s stake in Epix for $1.03 billion.

More recently, Starz decided to do what HBO had done and launch a standalone streaming service; but as a result, Comcast subscribers can't use their login info to access their new service.

Starz is a premium cable network launched in 1994, specializing in first-run movies.
