DIRECTV Adds ESPN News HD, The Disney Channel, and Toon Disney to its High Def lineup

Direct TV is continually striving too be the market leader in High Definition television again. To their high definition line up they have added ESPN News HD, The Disney Channel HD, and even Toon Disney HD. Obviously they have the bandwidth too add these channels to high definition, because in my opinion, they aren’t the most HD worthy.

The ESPN news channel makes some sense as occasionally live sporting events are aired on the all sports news network. Sports highlights also deserve HD quality. But for the most part you get a close up high definition picture of people sitting at sports center desks. Great if you’re looking for facial blemishes, but personally I’m not into it. Go Direct TV. Now the other two HD channels just make me sick.

The Disney Channel does actually play some real Television, but the cheesy, corny Disney programing makes me sick in regular definition. Now Toon Disney, just the name of it doesn’t make a lot of high definition sense, it only plays Cartoons! How outstanding can HD picture of cartoons really get? That’s all I have to say about that. Go Direct TV, wait to get more channels in high def, it shows they are on top of things.

Local HD Programming now available in Austin, Flint, Orlando, and West Palm Beach

Dish Network announced in a press release today that they will add local high definition programming via satellite transmission to four new markets: Austin Texas, Flint Michigan, Orlando and West Palm Beach Florida. Previously these markets did not have the local network broadcasts available in high definition. Dish subscribers were able to get programming in HD for some of the major networks, but through an out of area feed.

It is estimated that now54 percent of U.S. households can access local HD channels through their Dish Network Satellite system when they have a satellite receiver and subscribe to the HD programming packages. Echostar has a goal to have 100 high definition markets by the end of 2008. The addition of Austin, Flint, Orlando, and West Palm Beach brings the total to 39 HD markets.

Non Dish customers can get HD receivers for free when signing up with a new Dish Network account and a two year contract. They can also get three months of programming for free and free installation. It’s a great time to get set up with High Definition and Dish Network in Austin Texas, Flint Michagan, Orlando Florida, and West Palm Beach Florida.
