Regional Sports Channels

[xtc]

Whats the deal with Voom not having any Regional Sports Channels, like for example Fox Sports West for the L.A. area? Is this in the works or no?

 

[Mr. Biggles]

Until the agreement with the shared satellite goes into effect and we all get upgraded to the 35" x 20" dish slated for later this year....the answer is pretty much no at this point.

xtc,

Probably not until October...as Mr. Biggles says.

MPEG-4 will should create capacity for RSNs on the small dish, and VOOM may put them on the larger dish (October 1) until all customers have installed the MPEG-4 upgrade card.
