Reader note: Read the following on the Direct TV web site regarding NASA TV. So they now want to charge $10.00 extra but not deliver HD. “Is NASA TV still available on DIRECTV? Yes, DIRECTV will still offer NASA TV on Channel 289. However, starting August 3, 2011, NASA TV will only be available to customers who have DIRECTV HD equipment and are subscribed to HD Access ($10/month). But please note: NASA TV will remain a standard definition channel. Upgrade to HD online or call us at 1-800-531-5000.”

  1. Still no change on this, DirecTV still charges me HD prices for a horribly cropped SD channel that is supposedly ‘free to air’, I’m surprised this doesn’t violate some kind of federal law… Is there any way to pressure DirecTV to change this? I’m open to any ideas.

  2. I don’t need this on direct TV,I get this on my Roku for free and in Hi Def. Try this if you want but I’d recommend it hardheartedly.
