DirecTV HD Channel Lineup

Sponsored Links
Got this late last night. I am guessing it was sent out to DirecTV dealers recently.

It lists the HD channels DirecTV will be carrying.

Because today is a holiday I don't have access to scanner, so I had to take a picture of the information instead.

Enjoy!

so is it going to be like...if you get the SD version of that channel you get the HD version too?

or if you have the hd acess you call all of those channels excluding the premium movie channels of course.

I would guess D* is in negotiations with some, while others are just not ready
yet? Any word on the RSN's?...further word from BSchneider concerning "turn-
on " dates:

the mid-december date coincides with what elizabeth conlisk, vp of communications at the big ten network told me saturday night. i asked if directv had given her a specific date yet and she replied ``mid-september.'' and i see BTN is on the list as is golf/versus and food network. since directv has previewed MHD, i'm surprised its not on the first list.

TBS HD should be up soon as they have already committed to broadcasting baseball playoffs, starting in early october! plus, i hope their college football game of the week is also in hi-def.

So 5 channels more than DISH already has. I guess DISH will match at least some of those like Tbs, Cnn and maybe Smithsonian or CArtoon network. I already know that the Big Ten Network won't be one of them. So it looks like so far DISH will still have all the channels in hd that I want. THe sports networks mean nothing to me and I don't count them towards the hd total.
