Al Jazeera Sports - Premier League 2013-2014

From tomorrow we will find out 100% what the prices are etc, and how if we are be able to watch via Hotbird or not.

From a couple of images floating about on the net over the last 24 hours, it could be that you will have to have a card paired with their own Humax box to be able to watch the channels.

    On the website it says +5 - +8 have gone and HD3 - HD6 have started, so guessing Hotbird has lost channels? If so it's not very fair to the potentially thousands of customers that use Hotbird, would Al Jazeera pay for any satellite installs for customers in the Mena region?

    These images are just the Al Jazeera sat box that can be purchased in the Middle East. There is/was one for Abu Dhabi Sports package also - can see some of the AD Sports branding in the background of the second image. Can be picked up from any shop selling electrical items.

    Had one last year for AD Sports, cost 999 dihrams and included a 12 month subscription to the AD Sports, Sky News HD and a few local channels.

    Just scanned the new TPs on 7W:

    12265H
    12476V

    Can't get a lock on these, nor on any of the other TPs that the JSC Sports channels are on (well, the free ones did lock at very low quality / heavily blocky). :( Used to be able to pick some of these up (still could at the weekend), but now - nothing.

    Nope.

    Gone from 3E too. 7W only and much weaker than before (unless it's just the weather conditions at the moment).

    Every thing is happening on 13° east is just temporary.

    The HD channels will be available only on 7° W

    For those using hotbird that sadly looks correct as apart from HD1 and HD2 those listed appear to be the only ones clearing on that satellite. Makes sense as +1 to +4 are only channels not to be used for Premier League coverage.

    It is a shame for Hotbird subscribers that Al Jazeera Sports have got Premier League football now as it is was fantastic package as it was and now they appear to have lost most of it on that satellite because of it.

    Nobody will buy a subscription if most all the channels will be available only on 7W and 7.3W.

    I read that only from AJS +1 to +4 will remain on Hotbird.

    On Nilesat and Badr the situation is normal, every channel from +1 to +10 is broadcasting normally.
