Dish Serves Up Versus For Free Over Three-Month Period
No. 2 DBS Operator Looks To Capitalize On Programmer's Carriage Dispute With DirecTV
John Eggerton -- Multichannel News, 9/1/2009 5:06:53 PM
Dish Network is looking to capitalize on the carriage dispute between Versus and its satellite rival, DirecTV.

The No. 2 satellite operator said Tuesday that it was offering Comcast-owned sports network Versus free to all its customers for three months starting now.

Versus is normally positioned on Dish's Classic Gold 250 and above packages, but will now be offered to all customers.

Versus has been pulled from DirecTV after the two sides could not come to carriage terms.

That webpage is straight from the horses mouth...
America's Top 200 Package - Over 200 Channels From DISH Network

And it is on there... checked the AT100 Classic Bronze package and it was not listed...

Very curious. Wonder if something will be announced about it on the upcoming Charlie Chat...
(BTW - Tweeted the Dish Tweet team, perhaps they can clear it up: Clerical Error or Charlie Christmas gift for AT200 people)

 

[dmendenjr]

Follow up from Dish's Twitter Team:

INFPGeek: @dishnetwork was VS moved to AT200? It's showing that has been on your package page for Classic Silver
dishnetwork: @INFPGeek Good Q! Versus was in free preview through 11/30/09, now only available on Classic Gold.

There you have it. Typo on Dish's AT200 webpage. Pitchfork and forget... later!

 

[Willh699]

it was a typo or the the Dish Network web staff though it was on Sliver and Dish forgot to flag the channel to only top 250 package until yesterday.

 

[ThunderSportz]

You wonder if it's one of those things where Dish Network had forgot to pull the channel, and maybe one of their staffers noticed the threads here about it still being available in 200 and the proverbial light bulb went off for them to pull it like they were supposed to at the end of November. Loose lips sunk the ship. LOL
