And yet, I was able to watch it in high definition just fine.

Basically everyone in America gets ESPN3 games. If you're a cord cutter, the BTN and PAC 12 networks are unavailable to you. Everything on FS1 is unavailable to you.

The ACC Network situation (syndication in the ACC territory, available on ESPN3 outside of the ACC territory) gives us much more access.

Why don't we have it? B/c ESPN doesn't think it will make $ -- Colonel Jessup 03/04/2016 12:30PM

If the Pac12 has a network, the ACC should too. PERIOD. -- chuckd4vt 03/05/2016 12:38AM

And BTW, the University of Texas has its own network, and it's profitable. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/05/2016 12:39AM

I believe profitable for Texas but dreadful for ESPN who cuts the checks ** -- jesuisvtguy 03/05/2016 9:28PM

Nope. That changed starting this year. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 12:16AM

Projected by who? ESPN? -- VictoryTurkey 03/06/2016 08:39AM

NOPE. Most recent reports say it'll make money in yr. 6. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 09:26AM

The Dodd article above says no. -- daveinop 03/08/2016 5:51PM

So it's still not profitable, they just think that it will turn around? ** -- HokieDevil 03/06/2016 8:52PM

No. They have already lined up the distribution for it to be profitable. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 9:05PM

Have you seen anything on when they will switch from -- daveinop 03/07/2016 09:03AM

No. Just read articles posted here. LHN's on TWC, Dish, and DirectTV now. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/07/2016 11:38AM

Which confuses me even further.... -- VT ChemE 1986 03/04/2016 1:12PM

Maybe not what you are looking for but here are 8 reasons -- Colonel Jessup 03/04/2016 2:05PM

All good points... especially #5 ** -- Calamitous 03/04/2016 6:32PM

Very Helpful. Thanks. One question -- VT ChemE 1986 03/04/2016 3:22PM

Once you go through the costs to create it, distributing it to the whole -- Late 80s Hokie 03/07/2016 12:17PM

ESPN and FOX over committed -- BigCrumpy 03/04/2016 1:57PM

I disagree with you. -- CobbCountyHokie 03/05/2016 09:23AM

So Cobb, you may have said elsewhere... but what do you see happening here? -- mwke 03/08/2016 08:23AM

So basically, the conference networks are failures -- VT ChemE 1986 03/04/2016 3:25PM

In the LHN, it is a two step process -- daveinop 03/04/2016 5:31PM

We played a basketball game only available on ESPN3 last night. -- Red Hokie 03/03/2016 9:54PM

We went to a sports bar in CHARLOTTE And couldn't watch ** -- chuckd4vt 03/03/2016 11:28PM
