Olympics on DISH Network; new way to look at things
NBC is a huge network and they plan on spreading out their coverage of the Olympics across 5 stations. DISH Network is combining all those stations and another one so fans can find their favorite event. No word if it is going to be available in HD but chances are it will not be. What is going to be in high-def is Universal HD and NBC HD. Together the stations will be broadcasting over 300 hours of the Olympics in high definition. Those stations though are not just on DISH. DIRECTV has Universal and recently Comcast announced they will add it in time for the Olymipcs. NBC, of course, is a national network and their primetime slots are going to be filled with Olympic coverage.
With 400 hours of the Olympics total (300 being HD), how much do you plan on watching it? The skiing is cool but other then that, I do not see myself watching much of it.
