[Husker] btn concern

[Mike Jaixen]

My understanding is that around September 1, BTN will be available as part of 
the America's Top 120 service to Nebraska customers as a local sports package 
(i.e. like Altitude and FSN).  DirecTV already included BTN in most of their 
packages.  Time Warner Cable (Lincoln/Columbus/Fremont), Cox (Omaha), Cable One, 
and Charter all reached agreements with BTN as well this week.

Here's the link to the BTN/Dish announcement.

Going way back to the beginning of this thread...

Do I understand correctly that the Big 10 is working with cable and satellite 
providers to carry the BTN in BTN country? Currently, I do not get BTN as a 
regular service on my Dish in Lincoln. Will my serivce package change? I know 
that Time Warner in Lincoln juggles things around to get BTN on the regular 
package. Or, to quote Charlie Burton, "is that wishful thinking on my part?"
