This is great for people that travel, and I've been waiting for this for a while. You can now watch Longhorn network on tablets, computers, etc. 

 
My iPhone has had a LHN app for quite some time allowing me to stream their feed live (via my provider ATT UVerse). Is their something new and better that has just been released?

I could never get the LHN app to work on my ipad for some reason. 

The biggest difference is more access/viewership since it's on the WatchESPN page with all the other big channels. 

 
Dish is being installed here on 8/24.  I had to replace my horrific cable.  I was down to only 9 channels!

Will that be available if your provider is Dish?

If your provider has the Longhorn Network you should have access on WatchESPN.

The provider has to have a deal for Watch ESPN as well.  In this instance, Dish does.  This will actually be a work around to watch LHN in HD for Dish subscribers.  Just need a Chromecast.   Currently, LHN is not showing up under Watch ESPN Channel on Roku.  Probably will be updated soon, but hasn't been yet.

I wish they would keep the app going but it appears dead. I used quite a few of the features besides the video feed. I'll miss the radio feed, stats, and calendar in particular. The radio feed could be paused just enough to sync it up with TV which annoys me to no end. I think it is a mistake to discontinue support of the app but one again I was not consulted.

No, but seriously. This is great news for people like me who aren't home all the time to watch LHN and have an outdated Iphone that supports the WatchESPN app but not the LHN app. I am spending 12-14 hours a day away from home, this works perfectly for me. 

 
The SEC Network & LHN appeared yesterday on Watch ESPN... My provider is TWC and so those two aren't working yet...

Kinda'  odd since LHN is on TWC...

When I go to Watch ESPN I dont see LHN. Is there a seperate link or page? I'm on Uverse if that matters.

 
I am thinking that DirecTV will never, ever have the Longhorn Network. The fact that they added the SEC Network immediately, and ESPN didn't package them (as many speculated they would), says it all. That really sucks.

Agree,Sejjr.  Switched from DISH to DTV a couple of years ago because DISH did not carry FOXSW, which televised most of the Longhorn games.  Now, it looks like I'll have to switch back (ugh) to get LHN.

 
When I called DISH, I specifically asked about Fox Sports SW, evidently it is included now in this area, SW Region.
