Re: FiOS adding NHL Network, NBA TV or MLB Network?

Per Eric Rabe at the Policy Blog, NHL Network should be on soon and from his comments, looks like the HD version will be on when it launches

Yes, it will be in SD and HD..

At least here in the Philly area - it will be added on 11/17

NBA TV will be coming soon as well - it's not tied to a League Pass deal. It should arrive same time as NHL Network.

If I had to bet..

I'd say you'll need at least the Extreme HD package to get the NHL Network.

Just my hunch.

Let me just quote one of the comments Mr. Rabe left to his own blog:

"NHL Network will launch soon and be rolled out to FiOS TV subscribers on a market-by-market basis. It will be part of the FiOS TV Extreme HD package (SD channel 87/HD channel 587). If you live within the NY Metro area, the NHL Network will be part of the sports package.

That sucks, why is it exactly that the NYC area has to pay more for these sports channels while everyone else gets them in the Extreme HD package?

Why is that NY/NNJ get the Extreme HD package for the price of the Essentials package? That doesn't suck, now does it?
