ESPN-U & ESPN Classic will swap channel#'s on 6/30

[dishrich]

title says it all - from a D* dealer update...
(also had move of DOC from 263 to 267 on 5/26)

 

[SamCdbs]

In line with Disney's policy of moving "U" to the lower tier packages, and "Classic" upward.

 

[Jimbo]

So ESPNU will move up where the rest of the ESPN's are, as it should have been in the 1st place :up

Well...it will move down really

 

[Jimbo]

Well...it will move down really

What ?

Isn't ESPNU moving from the 600's to 208 ?

 

[Ronnie-]

What ?

Isn't ESPNU moving from the 600's to 208 ?

Yes.

600 is a higher number than 200. Which means they are moving down

 

[satjay]

I think its a good move to to the 200's

 

[Ronnie-]

I think its a good move to to the 200's

I do too. It will make it easier to keep up with

 

[Rey]

Yes.

600 is a higher number than 200. Which means they are moving down

:up:up lol

 

[TigerpounceTN]

Excellent move. I'll be much happier with the channel at 208. I never watch Classic and I watch ESPNU regularly.

 

[uncrules]

This move pleases me.

 

[Juan]

Classic was a better channel b4 ESPN bought them out..now its just junk

 

[Jimbo]

Classic was a better channel b4 ESPN bought them out..now its just junk

I didn't like it in either time frame ....

 

[Juan]

I didn't like it in either time frame ....

If u like to watch the Rangers or Mets win it was outstanding (From th NY 31 WBIS Days)

 

[Rey]

i used to like espn classic as well. it stinks now imo

 

[satjay]

I do too. It will make it easier to keep up with

Yes, come college football season will be nice to scroll between the games

 

[Mr Tony]

Now if they would move VS down to the 200's too it would be great

 

[Ronnie-]

Now if they would move VS down to the 200's too it would be great

Or move all of the ESPNs and other sports channels (NFL, MLB) to the 600s.

 

[satjay]

I agree that some re-organzing of channels should be done, grouping channels better

 

[Mr Tony]

Or move all of the ESPNs and other sports channels (NFL, MLB) to the 600s.

nah. Don't move them there unless D* figures out how to really use a "all sub" list like Dish does

It can be confusing in the sports area (600's) unless you have a favorites set up. If you dont sub to the sports pack and say "channels I get" I technically should have 2 RSN's showing
668 FSN North (my RSN)
669 FSN Wisco (they are part of FSN North and if FSN North has a Twins game on and FSN Wisco has a national FSN game like college baseball on both are open)

yet it shows I have like 10 RSN's but they're all the "alt" and extra RSN's that I never see anything on
