Versus now in HD
If you have DirecTV and HD, you now get Versus in HD (technically the HD bandwidth is split between Versus and the Golf Channel).
I don't know what this means about cycling however. But to a great extent, they are limited by the feed that they are provided - yeah, I suppose the mobile studio could be in HD, but who cares. For lesser events that are broadcast in tape delay, it might be easier as there is no uplink required.
