More on Internet streaming

By A. Boggs - Just got this update from the SEC on Internet streaming for games as a part of the new television contract with ESPN and CBS. I wrote a blog on this a few weeks ago that summarizes where you can catch the Commodores this year (link here). It looks like the only change is that games televised on ESPNU will not be streamed on ESPN360 or will be available on the network's GamePlan package.

Here's what we received from the SEC:

All games will be available live online except the ESPNU games. You must have that channel on your TV to view those games.

CBS – will be streamed on CBSSports.com

ESPN, ESPN2 – will be streamed on ESPN360

ESPNU – will not be streamed on ESPN360 and will not be available on GamePlan

SEC Network - will be streamed on ESPN360 and be available on GamePlan (with no blackout restrictions)

CSS – will be streamed on ESPN360 and be available on GamePlan (with no blackout restrictions)

FSN - will be streamed on ESPN360 and be available on GamePlan (blackout restrictions apply within SEC territory)

At 11:30 p.m. CT on the day of the games, the complete TV feed (without commercials) will be available free of charge for viewing at the SEC Digital Network (secsports.com).

There will however be a fee if a fan wants to download the game to their computer/phone/etc. or order a DVD copy. (For the late games, they may not be up at 11:30 p.m. CT but will be available as soon as they are digitized.)
