Insight customers in Columbus, Ohio and Bowling Green, Kentucky now have three additional high definition channels on their lineup.
Sports fans in Bowling Green and Columbus can now experience NHL games, IndyCar racing, and a number of mixed martial arts competitions in high definition on Versus HD. Golfing enthusiasts will be treated to watching PGA Tour events in HD on Golf HD. And customers wanting the latest news from Hollywood and great pop culture reality programming now have E! Entertainment HD. Columbus and Bowling Green customers can find Versus HD on channel 971, Golf HD on channel 972, and E! Entertainment HD on channel 989.
While this announcement is good news for Insight customers in Bowling Green and Columbus, a number of Insight customers in other areas have asked about HD additions for their area here on this blog and over at Broadband Reports' forums. We are completely committed to adding the HD channels you want and we are working very hard, behind the scenes to do that. Adding HD channels is a complex process with many different ingredients - determining which channels customers want, freeing up the necessary bandwidth to add channels, and creating agreements with programmers to offer new channels.
Rest assured that if you're an Insight customer - we're hard at work every day to bring you new HD channels. During 2010, every Insight district will see some exciting new HD channels launched so stay tuned here for announcements about launches in your area.
Why does insight not rollout the same HD channels in all markets. I would love versus and E! in HD in Louisville.

Even though he mentions that every market will get new HD channels in 2010, when will that be....March, July, October, December???? Columbus has competition that is why they have more HD channels then any other market, but Bowling Green. Louisville and Columbus is by far the biggest markets that Insight has, why is Louisville always last to get new upgrades? It is just frustrating. I am not sure if Mr. Willner gets that for Insight customers that are not in Columbus or Bowling Green.

I really applaud Insight for their HD line-up in Columbus. When compared to other cable operators, Insight has really been on the forefront in HD offering.
All we need now is Comedy Central, FX, Spike and VH1 in HD.
On another note, it would also be nice if Howard TV was ever made available.

When will Louisville get Versus and CBS College Sports in HD?

You guys use INDemand but don't offer HowardTV.
I watch more of my TV via the on demand type services.
Don't be afraid to expand that segment of your product offerings.
