| |  Where oh where is ESPN2-HD?
This is getting silly - they only signed the contract at CES! 
I'm going to blow a gasket if this isn't up by the Big East Tourney, as the game swapping between the networks is oh-so-annoying!

I'm with ya on this. I also still think it's crazy we don't have TNT HD yet as well.

TNT HD = another matter, as the contracts haven't been made public yet.

I know this question is kinda off the beaten path, but when Sportscenter HD is on, does ESPN consider this 1 hour of HD programming? I mean, if you watch the Sportscenter in HD I swear not even half the programming time is in actual HD. Am I wrong or just bitter? |

Story from D* is that even though they have the contract for this channel. There isn't enough HD content on the channel, to justify the 24/7 bandwidth constraint this channel would add to the HD mix.

I just want to see the conference tourniment games on ESPN2 HD. If I wasn't getting HD for free from D*, I'd cancel as I can't justify paying $11/month for the HD content (or lack there of).

Why don't they do what they do with the NBA games and show the ESPN2HD content on the 90's (former ST channels) when there is an HD game? "Tilt" doesn't count of course...
