Four Disney HD channels go dark on DISH Network
Posted on June 23, 2010 | 1 Comment
Guess we can forget about ESPN 3D coming to DISH Network any time soon, as the dispute between the satellite company and Disney has escalated to the point that Disney Channel HD, Disney XD HD, ABC Family HD and ESPNews HD have all been removed from the service. They're still available in SD if you really need your The Secret Life of an American Teenager fix, but right now Disney is pointing to a New York State Court ruling from March indicating DISH owes it $65 million, which DISH is appealing. Multichannel News points out there's also a lawsuit between DISH and ESPN still ongoing as well, so we'll have to wait and see if this move helps negotiations along at all.Four Disney HD channels go dark on DISH Network originally appeared on Engadget HD on Wed, 23 Jun 2010 09:04:00 EST.

ABC’s subscription video plans leaked in consumer survey?
Posted on May 27, 2010 | No CommentsAt Engadget HQ, we take great care not to trumpet the claims of a web survey, as it's always difficult to tell who's actually doing the surveying -- and even if we could, consumer surveys are all about a "what if" that may never actually come to pass. That said, it looks like maybe ABC is conducting a study asking folks whether they'd be interested in a subscription to an ABC.com streaming video service, and maybe that service might have a wide variety ABC shows, past and present, fully on-demand. Sound familiar? Interestingly, the subscription would seem to be offered alongside the existing free service, and both paid and free would have advertising, though reduced by 20 percent for those coughing up the fee. You can find a list of potentially potential shows included in the gallery below, forwarded to us by an anonymous tipster; we tried to take the survey ourselves, but were promptly rejected for our love of FlashForward.

Poll: Lost ends this weekend, are you ready?
Posted on May 22, 2010 | No Comments
It's been a long, strange road, but we're finally nearing the end. The series finale of Lost airs at 9 p.m. tomorrow (there's a "newly enhanced" version of the pilot airing tonight at 8, and a two hour event before the finale tomorrow at 7 p.m.) and we just want to know who is still on board. There's been Easter Eggs, time travel, more plot twists than we can count and ultimately many differing opinions on the quality of recent episodes, but we'll be in front of the TV tomorrow night (seriously, DVRing beyond a few minutes isn't really an option given the inevitability of spoilers.) Will you? Musical treat embedded after the break for true fans.

Series finale of Lost is headed overseas faster than usual
Posted on May 21, 2010 | No Comments
Good news for anyone watching Lost outside the US who doesn't already chase down new episodes on torrents, newsgroups, Rapidshare or wherever else, for the final episode several countries will see it aired at the same time as the West Coast broadcast here, while a total of 59 countries will watch within 24-48 hours. Disney Media Networks is crediting the shortened window to the show's great appeal (and the fact people may be killed over revealing spoilers before it airs locally) which will bring it to UK, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Israel, and Turkey in the (no subtitles) simulcast. Check after the break for the other broadcasters on an accelerated schedule.Continue reading Series finale of Lost is headed overseas faster than usual
