Time Warner Cable sent customers a notice early Friday morning announcement that they have reached "a new long-term agreement with Disney/ABC and ESPN" but it also looks like part of the agreement means more Disney content on Time Warner Cable.

Here is part of their message: There will be no interruption of ESPN or Disney channels, as well as WABC in New York, KABC in Los Angeles, WTVD in Raleigh-Durham-Fayetteville and WTVG in Toledo. They'll stay right here on Time Warner Cable. In fact, our agreement means more networks and services for you, including the following*:

� Disney Junior - a new 24-hour basic channel for preschool-age children, parents and caregivers launching in 2012.

� ESPN3.com - ESPN's live sports broadband network will be available to all Time Warner Cable subscribers who get ESPN.

� A New ESPN Service - customers will be able to view ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU through broadband and mobile Internet devices.

� ESPN Goal Line - a college football super-highlight channel will be available only to Time Warner Cable's Sports Pass customers starting as early as September 4, 2010.

� ESPN Buzzer Beater - a college basketball service similar to ESPN Goal Line, will be available to Time Warner Cable's Sports Pass customers for college basketball season.

� Expanded Video On Demand Services - including ABC On Demand, Disney-branded On Demand offerings for kids, local sports content in select markets, plus the subscription Video On Demand service "Disney Family Movies."
