This is good news (if true) although the thought of seeing some of those Soxs players with such clarity is frightening to put it mildly. At least Pedro's mug won't be on.
I have the NBA Full Court & HD package. When there is an out of market game on the 90's example: LA Lakers I am blacked out. I can watch the Lakers down in standard 700's. Using this a precident I would not count on out of market hd baseball.HDVoomer said:

Why does Directv continue to do HD channels that only a few people can receive? I know there are alot of Yankee fans out there but there are more people who aren't. They need to get thier act together and put up National channels like ESPN2-HD and TNT-HD.

What he said. I know I'm tired of seeing NBA games in HD on the 90's for our local team and while Comcast customers can see the games on cable we're blacked out on D*. I am starting to 'Re-Think TV' and it may be cable.

Yah i have to agree.....been waiting for ome TNT-HD NBA for a good long time. Glad i left Voom to come back to D* but man....I do miss the choices they offer in HD...
Any chance of us New Englanders getting NESN in HD anytime soon?? I know cable had it....That would be great to see the Red Sox beat the yankees AGAIN in HD this season

I feel the same way. While I appreciate any possible new HD programming we may get I don't understand why we may possibly get YES HD before TNT-HD or ESPN2-HD or Starz-HD or...... I remember a while ago one of our members longhornxp had said it would be a long time before we saw anymore HD but man I never really thought it would be this long. I always hear the no bandwidth argument but they are still compressing the HD channels since sunday ticket ended which leads me to believe they have room for at least TNT-HD or one other full time channel. Hopefully with Spaceway 1 going up soon we might see and added channel or two.

This is the reply I received today from NESN - I'm not holding my breath
:Dear DirecTV Customer:
NESN appreciates your interest in our high definition coverage of the Red Sox and Bruins home games. NESN and DirecTV have discussed carriage of these HD games. However, I have no information to offer at this time.
We will save your email and notify when more information is available about DirecTV distributing NESN's HD game coverage.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Keisha Hall

so
Well it looks like Voom is continuing to add channels and this morning they added Wealth HD. It's been a long time since we have gotten a new HD channel and now a company facing serious problems has added like 20 - 25 channels in the last week. I am happy for the Voomers. Come on D* please add a new HD channel or two soon and by that I mean a full time channel not the YES network (nothing against you Yankee fans).

D* already carries all the HD versions of the FSN channels that are O&O. The FSN-HD games show up in the 90's. I have watched a few Suns games in HD and I do not sub to any sports packages, just TC+ and the HD package
The fine folks of New England lose again. Eh, they're tough folks though. They have dealt with losing out for so many years so what's another heartbreaker? It's a Massachusetts tradition!

Unless i am missing something i don't get the FSN HD feed for any bucks or brewers games(past) on a 90's channel...maybe just FSN sw has it in HD. OR Am i missing it?
