This is a circular argument
It has been explained on how to get the content in question. Some just do not agree with that reasoning because of price, and that is fine:up

Wonder if they got up with E* to play the same jokeIts just D* playing an April fools joke.
i'll allow it. But why are we, as consumers, arguing about channel count? especially to the point where we make up our own rules as what counts and what doesn't. shouldn't the providers be trying to convince US who has the bigger count? instead it turns into "E* has X HD channels if you count premiums" "well i like sports more so i'm counting RSNs that i don't even watch"
Whats the price to watch every MLB,NBA,and NHL game on STO in HD , when I live in NY DMA? $700 $800???This is a circular argument

I can watch Every Movie in HD on HBO, HBO West,HBO2, HBO Signature,HBO ZONE, HBO Family,HBO Comedy For as Little as $120 per Year. 24/7 no paid programming.
The Joke will be on E*.Wonder if they got up with E* to play the same joke
I hope Satellite Guys/ Multi Channel News will be all over this if they don't launch.
And? Does the price one pays make a difference in who can get it and where?
I do understand the price argument from a value perspective, and even that is subjective if one does or does not like the content offered. I can not understand it from what is available where stance though, and alot of people use it when arguing this.
Yeah, I honestly still think they may do it a little later, but if not, bad E*!!!The Joke will be on E*.

I would love a universal count that all providers stuck to in their advertising. It just goes back to trying to pull one over on the consumer by playing with the numbers. No one believes a HD demo channel or HD PPV should count. I take that back some I guess do.
Can't they do it for the children?
Sure. Maybe a guy from NY can't afford to see his Favorite STO games in HD.
But instead D* waves around this Useless RSN sports pack, claimming so much HD sports, When thats completely false.
Your Local RSN's is all the HD sports a NON sports Pack "MLB,NBA,NHL" subscriber gets
in all honesty the count should be based on what is in the regular packages. not the premium packages and not the sports packages. those should be the numbers the providers give us. if you happen to care about sports then you do a little more research to find out if what you want is available, same with movies. but the number the AVERAGE consumer cares about is what is in the base packages. the argument over the number of RSNs is rediculous.
Ok, but that could be the same for anything either company offers. Some people may want but can not afford anything other than the basic package.
Does it change where it is available? You did not answer that part.
You do pick up more than RSNs with it, but I do see your point SOMEWHAT there. I still say the out of market news is worth it for me, but YMMV
Yeah, sorry. I forgot what thread we were in.but back on the topic of G4......Olivia Munn says "Hi"
Hemi, we can discuss this in the thread that was moved if you want
Yes It does change where its available.
If I get the muilti sports pack for $12, I still can't get ANY out of market game.
That makes it Not available.
Sports News, Com'on now Every RSN runs almost exactly the same news. I've seen plenty on Dodger News on SNY.
Why is it silly. Regional only refers to the region of focus, not the region of availability. Pay extra in LA to watch NESN and you can.
We already addressed that. Price is not the determining factor, coverage is. To be considered national the only thing that matters is were it is available. If it is available anywhere in the nation, then it is national. Because one has to pay extra does not change that criteria. One has to pay extra for HBO, should that not count either?
What does that have to do with coverage? "National" refers to coverage, not price.
