Washington, D.C. (October 10, 2007) -- DIRECTV today added four High-Definition channels, bringing its national HD channel total to 45 (including the four local networks).

The new channels are: MGM HD (channel 255); Food Network HD (231-1); National Geographic HD (276) and CNBC HD+ (355)

DIRECTV says it will offer 70 HD channels by month's end and up to 100 high-def channels by the end of the year.

The satcaster started the HD expansion in September with the addition of 21 new High-Definition channels.

EchoStar, the nation's second leading satellite service, this week claimed that it's still the HD leader with 48 national high-def channels.

However, EchoStar's list includes eight HD PPV channels.
 
Many of these channels Direct is adding Dish has had them for awhile now.
