Free HBO for Obama Inauguration Party?

[theoak]

I was reading in the news yesterday that HBO is covering the Inauguration Party and that HBO will open the channel up free for the party on "cable" systems.

There are going to be some pretty good performances and thus I was wondering if anyone has heard if this is going to happen for "satellite" systems too?

I don't have any additional information except that I heard HBO is opening up the airwave or whatever, meaning that anyone can just 'tune in.' I would imagine that Dish will pick up this broadcast and redistribute it for us.

The program will be on satellite as well.
