oh shite, I couldn't be more wrong above - SBD article
quote:

Comcast will carry the channel at its Aug. 14 launch on its expanded basic tier within SEC territory and digital basic outside of it. Sources say the channel's rate card is at $1.40 per subscriber per month within the SEC's 11-state footprint and $0.25 per month outside of it.


FYI Comcast's definition of Expanded Basic
Our Expanded Basic package includes 30-50 channels.* These include:

Disney
ESPN
MTV
Fox News

The only level below that is just locals and government channels (no ESPN, news channels, etc)

And Digitial Starter
140+ channels. Does not include NFLN, NBAtv, MLBtv and starts at $29/month. So my guess is 90%+ of all Xfinity customers have this at least

Woah. If that rate is standard across the board then the SEC is looking at doubling its money from TV next year (if the 50/50 split is real).

We will surpass the LHN's final year payout year 1 of the SECN!

Ok, I'm confused. I'm trying to determine "digital basic" vs. "expanded basic"

I could have sworn that, in Washington, I'd need the Sports Tier.
