ITVN Adds GolTV: Wise Decision or Not?

ITVN announced this morning that they’ve agreed a deal with GolTV to provide the bilingual soccer network to subscribers.

The cost will be $9.95 per month, which also includes a music video network, radio stations and more.

Personally I don’t see the wisdom in doing the deal with GolTV. Most cable companies provide GolTV, and if you have Fox Soccer Channel, you probably have GolTV on your cable box. Setanta Sports, meanwhile, is not available on most cable networks throughout the U.S., so unless you have DirecTV, ITVN is your best alternate solution.

For GolTV, it’s a win because it means they’ll have access to more subscribers than before. But how many more I wonder…
