Filed in archive IPTV on July 9, 2005

OpenTV is an Interactive TV middleware company owned by Liberty Media. I keep an eye on them because they are putting together the relationships and ITV technology that might make them a significant player in the future of television. (More on this in another post).

The Sporting News is a channel developed by OpenTV and is available free of charge to subscribers of the Dish Network with compatible receivers. EchoStar Communications Corporation serves more than 11.2 million satellite television subscribers in the United States.

The Sporting News channel covers headline news, scores, standings and statistics for seven sports: National Football League, Major League Baseball, National Basketball Association, National Hockey League, National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, and NCAA football and basketball.
