Dish Network Adds AMC HD

Washington, D.C. (August 18, 2010) -- Dish Network has added  AMC HD to its high-def lineup.

AMC's programming lineup includes such popular and critically-acclaimed shows as Mad Men, Rubicon and Breaking Bad. Dish did not reveal the channel number for the high-def edition; the satcaster already carries the SD version.
(Update: AMC HD can be found on channels 130 and 9529.)

Today's addition means that DIRECTV will be the only satellite TV service that does not carry AMC in high-def. DIRECTV's Twitter page has said it's in negotiations with AMC's parent, Rainbow Media, to carry AMC HD.
