How will new HD capacity will affect my NBA League Pass?

[Tivoenthused]

I am enormous NBA fan (6 year league pass subscriber) and HD enthusiast... it kills me that many out-of-market NBA games are available in HD, but aren't carried in HD on the NBA league pass. With the new birds going up, can I expect to be able to get all of the out-of-market games in HD where available? Will I have to pay more (a la MLB EI)?

At some point, I expect all NBA games, (as well as NFL, MLB, and NHL) that are in HD will be available to all subscribers, tho prossibily at higher prices. NFL and MLB are that way today.

And at some point all the HD games will require the H20 or HR20 receivers or their replacements, tho no one is sure when the transition will occur. Probably not this season for the NFL.

Cheers,
Tom
