DISH Reaches Long Term Agreement with DISNEY / ESPN / ABC

[Stickel]

Wasn't there an official press release on the DISH and ESPN websites though?

 

[sethwell]

I've read the Press Releases. I'm looking forward to the Star Wars: Rebels series that is going to debut later this Summer. I don't see Disney HD mentioned in this agreement. I'm I missing something or will DisneyXD-HD be absent?

read more carefully.

" As part of the agreement, DISH will launch ESPNEWS, ESPNU, Disney Channel and ABC Family in high definition. ESPN Classic will be reintroduced as a video-on-demand channel."

That simply doesn't answer the question. It does not say these channels in HD and THAT IS ALL. (Although it COULD mean that . . .)

I'd sure like to know when the HD channels will start broadcasting again.

I'm confused on the ESPN classic on demand, will that channel no longer be in the guide?

Folks the HD channels will be coming back this "Spring"

Thats all we have.

There is no official confirmation DISNEY XD is coming back in HD, although I expect it to.

When I get more from DISH I will post it.

Wouldn't it be a kick in the head if they waited until the SEC Network launch?? Why not make it a 'big bang' event....

This was an "official" leak, but on purpose in my opinion. The cone of silence was in place for months, I think it was lifted and CONTROL - uh -DISH wanted something out there. (Maybe KAOS - uh - Disney too) There was something posted at DISH I believe.

It's ok, I give you permission to use my material.

We don't need DISH, Scott. Just tell us what your gut is saying!

Is he the guy at the stoplight with the cardboard sign yelling about "potato salad" and "the government"?

What about the mobile apps like WatchESPN?

And Dish should have ESPNNEWS, ABC Family and Disney in HD already from before. Should just need to be reuplinked.
