DirecTV NBA League Pass and the lockout

DirecTV sent this out via e-mail tonight:

Your NBA LEAGUE PASS™ subscription is set to automatically renew for the 2011-12 NBA Season. Due to the NBA's ongoing labor negotiations with the players' union, DIRECTV is offering all subscribers a no-risk policy. There will be absolutely no charge for your NBA LEAGUE PASS subscription until it is confirmed that the 2011-12 NBA Season will begin.

• A balance of $0.00 will show for the NBA LEAGUE PASS™ portion of your bill.
• Once an agreement is reached, your subscription will renew for six easy payments of $31.99 each, unless any games are cancelled from the season schedule.
• If games are cancelled, your bill and payment schedule will be adjusted accordingly.
