Word of warning....Dish only has these channels in SD, and the video quality is crap!

There was a similar thread to this in Dish's official forum, which I added to on Thursday. That thread has now been locked. The mod's answer to the question was "I do not have new information about the availability of Premier League Extra Time, at this time. Please let me know if I can assist...

I used the NBC Live Extra website with a Chromecast last season, or the Live Extra app on my tablet plugged-in to my tv via HDMI. Both decent alternatives, but the video is very slightly jittery. I'd really prefer Dish to carry the channels. I have internet service via Uverse and Comcast, and...

Have Dish announced whether or not they will be carrying the Premier League Extra Time channels this upcoming season??

Could someone from DIRT please clear this up for once and for all: apparently people are reporting that on Facebook, Dish has now come foward and said that they WON'T have the Premier League Extra Time channels until next season! If this is indeed the case, please just confirm it, so those of...

Anyone heard anything?? I got a stock letter back from Dish Care, which made it sound as if I was requesting 1 channel, even though I explained the whole "extra time" and "live extra" concept in my original email. I've been researching the competition, and it sounds like for my area (Chicago...

I emailed support through the Dish website for verification on this whole thing, and they have not yet replied. I guess they don't mind losing a 10+ year customer paying over $135 per month.

NBC deal with the EPL was officially announced last October (2012). NBC press conference on April 16, 2013 laid out all their plans for online and overflow coverage. How is this short notice??

ok....I'm out.

I don't have a good feeling about this, after all, I've been waiting since March 2010 for Dish to add the HD feed of Fox Soccer Plus. I've already got Comcast and Uverse in the house for broadband, so I guess I'll wait and see who offers the best option.

Free preview of a channel that will soon be gone (Fox Soccer Channel)....Yes, that makes perfect sense.

If true this is good news...I just really hope the games are in HD!

Looks like DirecTV will have the Premier League Extra Time channels according to this http://support.directv.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4110/p/17%2C20

Can't believe they just turned 406HD off right in the middle of a game (aprox 1430CT). Went to the bathroom and when I came out the receiver had changed to channel 1 VOD....I blamed the dog for stepping on the remote, until I realized that 406HD wasn't in the guide anymore. Don't these type of...

I'd be more inclined to think the lack of commercials is due to the fact that they simply haven't sold any ad time yet. The whole thing seems rather cobbled together at the last minute. They probably only just have a sales deaprtment up and running.
