DirecTV added ABC in High Def last night
I was surprised to find that DirecTV turned on the national ABC channels in high definition last night. I just watched the parade in high def and now D* has the ABC bowl games in high definition.
I now have E&W feeds of NBC, CBS, ABC and Fox in HD thanks to DirecTV!

Actually I'm not in an O&O but have had distant networks for years via waivers. You're right though that availability is variable. YMMV.

OK, I have directv, and just got an HD ready TV. If I get the HD receiver from Directv, will these shows be in HD, or do I have to pay directv extra, and get their HD subscription channels?
I'm trying to figure it out before the SuperBowl. I get the Philadelphia networks, if that matters.

Otherwise you'd need to be O&O right now which Philiadelphia is for ABC. I'm not sure about the others.
Last I knew they were offering the first 6 months of HD free but I'm not sure if that's still ongoing.
