Yes, coverage will be exactly as BSjanitor stated. The matches that don't air on ESPN 2 will be available at Setanta pubs. Supposedly, Setanta will launch a residential channel eventually for a rumored $13.95 a month that will have the coverage too.

Well, this promising, assuming it works out. In the meantime, any info on ESPN Deportes availability on satellite and the big cable companies?

Why absolutely no coverage (not even via Setanta) of any of the August 10 and August 11 fixtures?

Champions League qualifiers used to be all over the ethnic channels on satellite. Apparently Setanta has got the exclusive rights to most of them. At least they've got the games of Rangers and Benfica. Look at Setanta's schedule:

On the upcoming Tuesday, they'll have CSKA Moscow x Rangers and Benfica x Anderlecht. Don't know whether they'll plan to show the Man U game on Wednesday...

Yes... what is up w/ the Setanta channel I keep reading about here? Is it ever going to launch and which MSOs or sat companies would offer it?

Australia get a super deal for the CL with potentially 4 live games per week, and potentially every match covered. Just depends on if SBS can once again compliment ESPN's coverage with thier Wednesday morning match and Thursday night replay by doing different games to the ones ESPN show live/replay.

TVRomania International will televise the Bucharest x Man U game on delayed, at 00:25 romanian time. Those with a Ku-band dish and MPEG2/DVB receiver in America can access this game on IntelSat America 5.

I'm trying to give the soccer deprived ones among us some relief by means of a live stream. E.g. tonight I'll be streaming Red Star Belgrade - PSV Eindhoven.
In the coming season I'll try to stream as many games as possible.
As ambitious as this may seem, I must tell you guys that the stream will have its shortcomings. Since it's a P2P-stream I had to keep the bitrate as low as possible sacrificing quality :o. So the stream is by no means a full replacement for TV.

Requirements:

1. Winamp 5 (http://www.winamp.com/player/)
2. Streamer (http://yp.streamerp2p.com/install.php?id=s%3d72d75e70%7cn%3d%5bTV%5fAddict%5d%5fTV%5fshows%2c%5fseries%2c%5fmovies%2c%5fetc%2e%7cb%3d68%7ct%3dnsv%7c)
