NFL Network has announced that for Week 4 of the NFL, it is making the RedZone channel available for DISH Network, as well as several other digital cable providers. DISH Network’s allows viewers to jump from game to game, seeing key moments in games in live HD. RedZone also features fantasy stats and player updates. The free preview is available on Sunday, Oct. 4th.
Officials at NFL Network are trying to gain even more viewers by allowing different providers to offer this service. It’s a great idea to build upon an already loyal and immense viewing party. Not only will this spur sampling but also potentially drive more purchases, especially in the satellite market. “The verdict is in…sports fans are calling NFL RedZone a ‘must-have,'” said Derek Harrar, general manager and senior vice president of video services for Comcast, in announcing the MSO’s promotional play. “Since the debut was an instant hit, we’re opening up the channel to all our digital customers so they can experience the intense live action only available on NFL RedZone.”
