Amazing news! I can't tell you how many times I tried to get ESPN 3 online but Cablevision always made sure it was blocked. Now no worries!

Just added NBA League Pass on Directv so I can follow Mo H since I don't think many Orlando games will be on national tv as they are not expected to be a good team and now lack the superstar D Howard. Was able to negotiate the $180 dollar price down to $60 as a long time premium subscriber. Don't try this at home.lol :)

It's official since 10/4 when the thread started

As for when they actually do it?  Who knows.

ESPN3 is the additonal programming like STJ games.

WatchESPN is just watching your regular ESPN channels on ancillary devices.

Good to see something in writing, but its getting pretty close to the beginning of the season and we have a lot of espn3 exclusive games early on. The second round charleston game being the most notable example. I think we re all gonna want to see that one.

Well the article was from the same day the thread was started.  However its up to Cablevision on when they get it going.

This had me excited but still got a message saying that is will be available in the coming months from Optimum. If anyone has a working account that they are willing to share via PM it would be much appreciated. Otherwise, gonna have to bother my buddy with Fios until he figures out his Userid/Password

Just a point of clarification espn3 is not broadcast by any of the cable providers.  It is programing available on your computer or mobile device through the watchespn app.  A lot of time games will be broadcast on both espnu and espn3 but sometimes programming is just available on espn3, like tonight.  So if you are trying to find a tv with it on it is going to happen unless someone is streaming it from a laptop to a tv

I'm not 100% sure, but I am fairly certain that you can watch ESPN3 on your TV through XBox Live. If you subscribe.  They often have 1 month free trials as well.  I think it only comes in standard definition.

There are other ways to stream to your TV through your PC as well.  You can set up you TV to be a monitor for your PC if your video card supports the TV resolution.
