Disney Channel in HD - coming soon

Post by MouseHouse55 »

Saw today in the WDC Investor's Newsletter that Disney Channel will be made available in HD in 2008 at some point. Sounds pretty cool to me.

Actually, ESPN's already in HD (we have it at my house). The only thing that excites me about Disney Channel and Toon Disney going HD is the prospect of seeing animated classics in that resolution before they even hit Blu-Ray. Then again, considering how seldom both channels show Disney features, I'm not going to get my hopes up.

That is true about ESPN HD ...

It's Toon Disney ... Disney Channel ... and a third one ...

I used to work for DirecTV and it said DirecTV would be carrying three brand-new HD channels from the Walt Disney Company by January 2008 ...

I wonder how quickly these channels will be added to satellite or cable companies when they are available.

The more HD the better.
