The subject says it all. Anyone have any info on whether TWC ever plans to add this channel in this line up?

I recall reading on AVS Forum that Mark Cuban acquired HD rights from the NHL and MLB because HDNet had fewer than 1 million viewers. Introduction into the Time Warner lineup nationwide could change that equation. Haven't heard of any negotations.

HOWEVER, ESPN-HD is supposed to arrive in April 2003. They could conceivably show MLB, NHL, NFL, AND the NBA in HD. (Request TWC to add ESPN-HD!)
