Grazie:D

I assume the good teams get more coverage (ie, Juve :) )?
Yep. Juve Milan and Inter get prime coverage, with Roma close behind and a little Fiorentina and Lazio. Sampdoria and Palermo seem to be bigger draws for them too. Occasionally they throw in an interesting match of underrepresented teams, like Lecce and (formerly) Bologna.

Oooh... good catch. I forgot to mention that. U-21s as well. Except lately they've had a thing about not having the rights to show some away friendlies. :(

Yeah Dish Network or DirecTV is really the way to go if you want to watch European football. The Dish has Gol TV, which shows Serie A and La Liga matches live and taped every weekend, and broadcasted all but a couple Juve matches last season. Along with Gol you can get RAI International as already stated, and they show a couple Serie A matches per week as well as home Azzurri matches. Fox Soccer Channel will amazingly this year show Lazio, Cagliari, Treviso, and Lecce home matches, so we will probably be able to watch a few Juve matches on that channel. Finally I'm in Serie A heaven. :extatic:

As for DirecTV, I'm not sure if they offer RAI International, however they do offer Setenta sport, which shows many Champions League matches. Unfortunately the Dish does not offer this channel, and we will have to wait for ESPN Deportes for a CL channel. :groan:

I have.....several times. So has Vinni. Dish Network will do what they want, when they want, so we are SOL until they actually recieve ESPN Deportes. I'm sure they have had thousands of requests thus far, so what the hell are they waiting for?

In the US, amica mia?

I would love to add RAI, anyway---but if they carried Serie A, too--I'd be in heaven:angel:
GolTV and Fox soccer channel are available on Dish Network's "America's top 180" for $45/month

If you want RAI International, add $12 more dollars per month

Well, on RAI Int'l I get to hear the announcers cough into their mikes like they're getting a hernia exam.

and they did it AGAIN during the Juve game (I thought of you !!)

Our Canadian viewers didnt get to see the Juve match on TLN...Nick may have been right when he said that TLN's coverage is diminishing now that RAI International is viewing in Canada

Its also nice to see that the Canadians got to hear what GolTV commentators sound like during the games today (they had GolTV's satellite feed)

feel our pain boys !!!

Put on some headphones and listen to some music... you'll enjoy it more. ;) (Too bad the video isn't synchronized with RAI Uno radio over the Internet or something... anything would be an improvement there. )

im sure i read somewhere that rai got the champion leagues rights this year and paid something like 50mil for it.
I think that might be for next year, but i could be wrong.
