Comcast XFINITY TV → Re: beIN Sport USA

still just PR fluff if you ask me. will be interesting to see just how widespread coverage is, or if this is just going to be FSC HD all over again. "officially carried" last May and still not available in many areas.

Latest insider word is that it will be live (at least in the Philly region) by next Thursday (9/6) at the latest.

I can't speak for other areas at this point.

This blog item on the Philly.com site yesterday evening appears to confirm that:

Comcast aims to add beINSport locally before Sept. 7 U.S. national team World Cup qualifier

This seems to confirm the Philly story, as this was posted on xfinity forurms by Comast Larry

Thank You
