I just found out that Dish Network has cancelled MASN which apparently happened in March. Obviously a dispute which happens between providers and networks. This was one of the "RSN" stations for SU sports. This came to light as the football game tomorrow is only carried on RSN's.
I am not too worried about football to be honest, but I will now lose a lot of hoops games because of this . If the games are not carried on ESPN or ACCN then I will be out of luck. ESPN+ and ACCN extra (I think that is what it is called) are not available here in Canada. Several of the other regional channels would show our games in the guide, but I would be blacked out on all of them except MASN.
For years and years I struggled to find decent streaming sites for our games and it became a complete nightmare (unable to delete ads, buffering problems, crap downloaded on my computer, etc.). Since the launch of ACCN I think there have only been a few games I could not watch thanks to ESPN, ACCN and MASN. Now I could be back to where I was a few years ago where it was necessary to follow some of the games on WAER on-line radio.
Don't be surprised if you see me asking for "decent" streaming sites on game days.
