Watching the Premiership in the US is becoming increasingly easy, but also increasingly confusing. Coverage is now split between Fox Soccer Channel and Setanta North America, with Setanta just about having the edge. Unfortunately for myself (and many others) Setanta is unavailable through cable, so if (like myself) you have totalitarian landlords who refuse to allow satelite dishes on their precious cockroach infested (well I saw one last week) building, this will be good news.

The damn fine EPL Talk Blog has been investigating a system whereby anyone with a decent internet connection can subscribe to Setanta, and watch Premiership footy on their tv.

Seems ITVN works through a small box, which converts an internet signal to broadcast quality television. No computer required (though you should have one anyway, if only to read Soccer-Weblog.) The box normally costs $100ish, but is now free with a 12 month subscription to Setanta ($15ish per month).

For more details read this, this and this, then listen to this interview with ITVN suit Joseph Scotti.
