I know Dish Network had FSC in HD, but I haven't been following developments to see if DirecTV picked it up yet. You would think directv would have FSC in HD since news corp owns both of them.

Really? I have Dish and don't get it in HD.

Not to mention the wall to wall coverage of the World Cup on ESPN. I can remember when the only was to see the vast majority of the games was to watch them on Univision. I actaully prefer that sometimes.
We actually had USA World Cup games outdrawing NBA finals games this year.
I remember watching the '82 World Cup on the old Spanish International Network, which was on channel 33 back then. The legendary Tony Tirado provided the play-by-play. (He was shouting "goooooooool" long before Andres Cantor became famous for doing that.) Times have sure changed since then. ESPN and ABC actually did a really good job of covering the World Cup this time, too, at least in the studio. Some of the game commentators were a bit dull (Martin Tyler...).

News Corp doesn't own DTV. Liberty Media does.

DirecTV has had Fox Soccer Channel in HD since the beginning of the year. Some of the English Premier games are not broadcast in "true HD", though.

That's frustrating
