Washington, D.C. (October 15, 2009) -- Dish Network has added Hustler
HD to its lineup of high-def channels.
That's according to the an article by Multichannel News.
This is not the first time that a satellite TV service has offered an
adult network in high-def. Several years ago, DIRECTV carried Spice HD
for a little more than a year. However, DIRECTV now does not carry an
adult channel in HD.
The Voom satellite service offered Playboy HD in its lineup of HD
channels before going out of business.
Dish Network has yet to add Hustler HD under its Adult Programming
section at its web site so no pricing was available this morning.
Normally, Dish charges a large monthly or nightly fee to watch an
adult channel.
Hustler HD, which launched on May 1, said in a press release that it
will not simply deliver standard-def movies on an HD channel, as some
non-adult network have done in the past.
"HustlerHD has the most true HD adult content from the top adult
studios with no up-converted movies," said LFP Inc and Hustler TV
president Michael H. Klein. "That will ensure the highest buy rate
among the HD enthusiasts."
The channel is owned by Hustler Magazine mogul Larry Flynt.
