ESPN2HD and Time Warner

Tremendous "hearsay" discource going on the Big Soccer boards regarding Time Warner's relucatance to get ESPN2HD on the air. Or as TW would say...ESPN's reluctance to get ESPN2HD on the air:

Brilliant stuff from these posts:

They're both right....and both very very wrong.

ESPN2 and ESPN2HD should not be separate services.

However, TWC should not be charging me extra for ESPNHD or ESPN2HD. It's one of the reasons I don't subscribe to ESPNHD. It's not worth it.

Basically the whole system is f-ed up and these two nimrods can't get their head our of their collective asses to offer a product that customers actually want. ESPN wants to charge extra for an HD feed...and TWC wants to pass that cost onto me.

What a crock of crap.
