That is going to be awesome...until they launch FSC PLus and take all the good EPL, Serie A, and CL games and put them on there and force you to spend $15 to see what has been free for years...

I'm curious to see what (if anything) they're going to do with the great Rugby matches that Setanta had.

Happy birthday to me!!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yup looks like it is.

Very intresting! English Premier will be great, dont mean to take the thread another way...But I wonder if Feb 10 will be also the day other channels are added in HD

 

[Ilya]

Probably not with Absolute though.

Let's See:

- $15 figure announced ? WRONG

- EPL, Serie A and CL games ever free in the USA. WRONG

And thanks to Janko for the information !

Rumored that FSC has bought the rights from Setanta. Could be announced today.

Thanks for the info. Any idea whether they'll air on FSC or FS+??

Looks extremely likely.

The timing either has something to do with the Olympics (combining both marketing spiels together), or they just want to leave another ten days for possibly adding some other channel(s).

No one has any idea what will air on which channel, and my experience tells me that Fox Soccer people have not yet decided either.

Right now English Permier League Live on ESPN2-HD in full HD.

I am not into soccer so I don't know. Is this a game only (like rsn hd) or a 24/7 channel?

How were those games never free? I have been watching that stuff on a combo of ESPN and FSC for many years now. I haven't had to pay extra for them.

And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that FSC+ will be a premium channel.

ESPN and FSC cost $60 per month - hardly free. In fact, FSC costs $23 per month extra above and beyond the package that has ESPN.

You can get Setanta on a Globecast satellite receiver for $15 per month total.

FSC HD is just an HD version of FSC, like ESPN-HD is an HD version of ESPN.

LOL. Sorry Mr. Semantics let me state it differently. I can watch that stuff at no extra charge above what I pay to watch all TV now. Does that wording meet your standards? The fact of that matter is that people will soon have to pay above and beyond what they pay now for those games.

Not for long, Setanta is going dark at the end of the month.

Yup looks like it is.

Scott,

I just went to the same page and Did not get the same page results. It now states FSC HD MAY be available soon. Gotta love the word "SOON"
