Unable to use new ESPN App?

Question

ESPN offers a new app called 'Watch ESPN' but ATT is not one of the providers who have signed on to this service.  My guess is they just don't know about it. How can we remedy this 'oversight'?The app allows you to watch many ESPN programs via iPhone 'live'.Thanks so much!

What does this have to do with the iPhone or AT&T?All apps for the iPhone come from the iTunes store which is controlled by Apple. Did you possibly post to the wrong forum?

Thanks for taking the time to reply and have a great weekend.You need to contact the TV side of ATT and express your interest having them carry the service.  The wireless side of ATT has nothing to do with the programing decisions.

I would guess, that the ESPN app is tied into the new ESPN contract and is being held back as a bargaining chip against ATT-uverse. When the new contract is signed, I would venture that uverse will be added to the allowed providers.

Not promising anything but I tried getting the App tonight and found out what has already been known.  Going to try and get in touch with some people and see what can happen.  I know I'm late to the game but this is ideal.
