"TSN and Rogers Cable have come to an agreement on distribution for the TSN2 service. Rogers customers will have access to hundreds of live sporting events on TSN2, including this week's key three-game series featuring the Toronto Blue Jays taking on the Boston Red Sox in a battle for first place."

Does this also mean that Rogers customers like me will also have to fork over more money to Rogers:( ? I already get TSN on Channel 30.

If you don't have digital cable you don't get the channel. If you have digital cable and you already have TSN, you likely have some form of the VIP package, and it should come for free.

It will be free on a preview for now. Then it will be part of a package. It will be included in the HD package that includes TSN.

What Channel is TSN2 on? I tried Channel 98 and it flipped me to Channel 99 which is a silly Rogers info channel. Yes, I have the HD box.

TSN2 is on Channel 1, Channel 59 and TSN2HD is on 501 for now.

Rogers has not assigned a permanent HD channel yet. I'm hoping for 504, and we bump SpeedHD to 510.

98 is expected to be the permanent digital channel.

It's a whole other sporting channel. Like ESPN and ESPN2.

I actually called Rogers and they said that last night was a "rookie error". Unfortunately, I'm watching the Jays losing in HD. The Jays will never get to the playoffs with their current 3rd and 4th place batters.

The youth of the starting pitching will catch up to them before the hitters.

Young pitchers have to go around the circuit once before we can properly judge their true talent at the elite level. Is your Channel 501 still working fine? Mine is so far so good.
