    ESPNU moving to Choice 7/1 & HD coming, ESPN Classic moving to sports pack.

    ESPN announced earlier this year that they would allow cable & satellite carriers to swap ESPNU and ESPN Classic.

    Why so many infomercial channels...

    It's easy revenue for D*. The home shopping channels pay D* for carriage and my guess is the God Squad channels do it as well.

    PEACHTREE TV ATLANTA BRAVES BASEBALL

    If the price is right, Charlie will do it, if not, Braves fans will join the camp of unhappy MLB Dish Network subscribers, just like Yankee fans who are upset that Dish Network doesn't carry YES.

    Weather Channel Local Content Feedback

    Same here. Everything was great the first day or so, but anymore the generic national forecast is shown.

    Weather Channel Local Content Feedback

    The radar image for Iowa needs to be adjusted so that the entire state is included, right now, the radar image looks like it's based out of Oklahoma City.

    Free Previews: MLB Extra Innings & Superfan: 3/31-4/6

    Are NBA & NHL games in the clear because of the sports pack free preview? I've been a sports pack subscriber from day one and i've noticed a lot of non blacked out NBA & NHL games tonight.

    Royals, FSN Midwest/KC, and Iowa

    Well some good news and bad news for Royals fans in Iowa. Good news is that the Royals will be seen in Iowa on FSN Midwest, the bad news is that it's only 45 games. Yesterday, I spoke to a representative at FSN Midwest and basically satellite users are getting screwed over. I was told that...

    Big Ten Network (BTN)

    The free preview recently ended for those with AT 100. To get BTN, you need to upgrade your programming package. Edit: BTW, welcome to SatelliteGuys! :welcome

    Big Ten Network (BTN)

    Is it available on the sports package? I thought it wasn't, but it would make sense for E* to offer BTN on the sports package, but then again, what has E* done with sports programming that has ever made sense?

    Why is Direct Tv so expensive ?

    To answer the question you asked in the subject line, when was the last time D* was in a programming dispute? Sure, D* might be a little pricer than E*, but i'd rather pay more than to constanly lose channels for a period of time that always seems to happen with E*.

    MLB Update: Atlanta Braves TV for DirecTV 2008

    FSN Kansas City

    I haven't heard any word on D* adding this spin off of FSN Midwest. Will D* do for this network what they did for FSN Wisconsin last year, and just rebrand the "spill-over" channel and be dark expect for live sporting events? :fingers crossed: that the Des Moines metro will be able to receive...

    Dish Network Big 10 Notice

    and that's why E* is always in programming disputes. Does Viacom, CourTV, and Lifetime ring a bell?

    Signed up for DirecTV on 8/30, install date 10/8... WTF!?!?!?!?

    co-worker of mine just upgraded to the HD package this week and is looking at early October for the install. Around these parts, I think Iowa fans switching to D* for BTN as alot to do with the delay.

    No land-based phone line

    Big Ten Channel Active

    great post and let me add that the nice channels (the Discovery channels, National Geo, etc.) who have a very small, but very loyal following won't survive in an ala carte world.

    Big Ten Network

    God, Silverman is so ignorant, it's not even funny. He thinks the Big 10 Network is the end all of sports networks. Being stranded in Big 10 land, i'm getting rather sick of Silverman and Delany pimping this network and their constant battering that the Big 10 Network is just as important to...
