Altitude, Comcast End Six-Year Blackout for Nuggets, Avalanche Games

Altitude Sports and Comcast have reached an agreement to end a nearly six-year blackout, allowing fans to watch Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche games on Xfinity TV. The service will be available as part of the 'Xfinity More Sports and Entertainment' package, priced at $15.95. The dispute began in August 2019 and has kept Comcast customers from viewing their local teams during significant seasons, including the Avalanche's Stanley Cup win and the Nuggets' NBA championship. Both Comcast and Altitude have previously been involved in legal battles over the issue, with Altitude alleging antitrust violations. The new agreement is effective immediately, and Altitude Sports remains accessible through its existing streaming service, Altitude+. This resolution has been welcomed by fans who have long sought access to their teams' games on Comcast services.
