Future upgrades to DirecTV?

I just flew from IAH to FLL and I loved the new DirecTV but is there any word on possible upgrades to the system? I couldn't watch the British Open as DirecTV doesn't have the "local" stations -- ie ABC which carried the BO.

Also, I am certain that we won't get any football games comes September.

I was in F and it was free, but I would gladly pay the $6.00 (or even $10.) to catch a football game on an upcoming flight.

I wouldn't bet on it. LiveTV hasn't had ABC since its inception many years ago. They do carry some of the other networks, IIRC, but not ABC.

haven't tried out CO yet, but on JetBlue they used local NY channels.
