The new agreement allows FiOS TV from Frontier subscribers and BendBroadband subscribers to receive the Pac-12 Network when it launches on Aug. 15.

The Pac-12 Oregon and Pac-12 National Networks will be on BendBroadband’s Essentials tier in Standard and High Definition. BendBroadband also plans to launch Pac-12’s TV Everywhere service as part of its “bendbroadband2go” platform.

And basically, you want to have Bendbroadband:

BendBroadband chose to carry the National and all six Regional nets because the Pac-12 Conference is very important to our Central Oregon Community

Can BendBroadband buy Directv sometime in the next month?

Why are the satelite people so dense. C'mon DirecTV, get off your lazy fanny and get it done...

My son spoke with a friend of his who is some sort of executive with direct TV who told him that he thought negotiations would be finalized within a couple of weeks. He said what he thought was taking so long was that the same people with the P-12 network are also working deals with Dish, AT&T, Verizon, Cablevision, and others. I assume that if they also reach deals with Verizon & AT&T that one would be able to watch P-12 sports on their PC, I-phone, etc?
