[Rajiv]

YESS!! been waiting so long for this. Hope bell will have it!

Can u write to them under 3-4 different emails and also call them separately, unless we show interest, the bal ain't rolling

[Rajiv]

Call them, and request ATN NEO

[Rajiv]

i emailed, will call 4-5 times in 2-3 weeks with diff names

[putrevus]

has any one here has comcast cable , http://www.mediamughals.com/News/1/1/Article/6458/NEO_Cricket_expands_reach_to_multiple_Comcast_markets.htm

thats going to be real bull. Most of the desis take dish network because it has this big mega pack. Some like me have directv too which has the best quality of any channel you can imagine. Comcast just has local cable, so those who don't want much desi channels, it's good for them, but not many desis buy comcast. I hope they bring it either in dish or direct too.

So there's no ranji on neo cricket is it?

Any news about NEO Sports being available through BELL? I hope NZ-India cricket series is still shown on CBN.

I emailed them and they said they will send it to Marketing Department, I can't imagine ATN surviving Neo Cricket on handful of Rogers Customers only. Satellite is the major player and it has to come on it Neo is showing IND/NZ so I doubt CBN will show it as the series is a good advertisement for the channel

They are showing the Ranji. (Dilli/Bengal) Its the exact telecast from India. I think soon we should see some local ads. Not sure how this is going to pan out as neo seems to show all of India's matches.The other channels are simply going to go pale in comparison. What about during the WC? Will they increase the price of the channel drastically or black it out and offer it on PPV?. Tricky situations ahead IMO.

Ludhianvi, i think i heard that the Olympics and the world cup cricket rites has been awarded to Star sports, as in Star Cricket in this situation. I doubt neo will cover world cup in India. Btw, strange may it sound, yesterday i was watching Star Cricket in dish network. They were showing star cricket exact feed from India on willow cricket. Indian ads etc. Jus thow they telecast in Hindi. During the game of Aus/Sri Lanka.

[Rajiv]

WC will be PPV, they won't leave that piece of the pie

[jaggudada]

Where is everyone watching the India's Test match? Bell's CBN only shows first 2 hrs and then starts the Pakistan test match. ATN NEO Sports is not available on Bell yet. What are you guys doing?

Neo only covers cricket, played in India.

[fineleg]

Neo only covers cricket' date=' played in India.[/quote'] Ok, thats what I seemed to remember too. So, that means pretty much useless during 2011, since its mainly away tours for India. Does India have any home Test match/ODI series scheduled in 2011?? Except for Worldcup (and ipl) which will be Pay-per-view event.
