Even if they had "promised," anybody that has been around this site and or a subscriber long enough knows how DirecTV is about keeping promises. A DirecTV promise is worth nothing. Ringing a bell for me is the June 2007 HBO/MAX HD promise of 11-13 channels by Dec 2007. That came and went and well, we are just lucky to have HBO Zone HD now (Comedy would have been nicer).
AMC HD is a must have these days. Promise or not, it should be on their agenda for sure.
DIRECTV's Ka birds are all but undetectable in most DIRECTV LA service areas. The fall-off on the edge of the beam is very quick.
You mean like TSN ?
From what I know , D* is not allowed in Canada for sub's, but that is a Canada thing, not a D* thing....
Are you asking CAN D* add the sport channel ?
That would have to be negotiated and a Contract ....
I would think that D* would be happy to somehow be able to get in on the bidding for TSN come contract time .... however, I have NEVER heard anything like this being discussed.
TSN would be a GREAT move for the NHL.
Is there any talk for DirecTV to add TruTV in HD? I know that some of the march madness early round games will be on that channel starting this upcoming year. (sorry if it was mentioned earlier in this thread - I didn't read all 41 pages...)
Tru TV and March Maddness ?????
Really ?
Wow, that came out of left field ... I would have NEVER looked there.
Who would have thought that they would put Olympics coverage on MSNBC and Universal HD? Neither is known for their live (or even tape delayed) sports coverage.Wow, that came out of left field ... I would have NEVER looked there.
they can't. Those channels are only authorized to be in Canada.
TSN (and TSN2) is partially owned by ESPN so lots of stuff on TSN is from ESPN
Most of what is on those channels (Score, TSN/TSN2, Sportsnet) is stuff from sports channels in the US already (FSN, ESPN family)
I have both setups (D* and Shaw)...now if someone would carry all the CFL games in the states that would be great
According to USA Today, it will be on CBS, TNT, TBS, and TruTV.

CBS and Turner will share coverage of regional semifinals, and CBS will carry regional finals and Final Four games through 2015. All games will be available on live TV instead of CBS switching back and forth."

Me, too. Evidently Epix signed a deal with Netflix for streaming. Hope they are HD.

I've wondered that too. But the 480p SD PQ on Netflix is at least watchable, many times better than either DIRECTV or Dish.
you must mean Nat Geo Wild because Nat Geo has been HD for many many years.
You mean TCM right? TMC has been in HD for some time, & TMC Xtra HD was just added...
