Cablevision, which is the New York City-area's largest cable provider, announced late yesterday that it has added ESPN2 HD to its high-def lineup. The company now offers 45 HD channels.
I honestly have no idea what took Cablevision so long. It has been the cable industry's leader in the number of high-def channels offered for a few years now and it makes no sense that ESPN2 HD has been carried on tiny cable systems you've never heard of for the last two years while one of the nation's most prominent hasn't offered it.
Then again, just look at the ongoing dispute between the NFL and Time Warner Cable over carriage of the NFL Network and it's pretty clear that common sense and concern for the customer often don't prevail in these discussions...
