Sky count Sky Sports News HD as a sports channel as well.

Can you really see any company agreeing to a request like "if you do anything new in the future, you must share it with us"?

Was any info on Channel number and launch date for MUTV HD given?

Any reference MUTV HD says about being ready for the 2014 tour, first fixture of which is on weds 23rd July. Hope this helps.

My guess W/C 14th July

Sky still show the odd La Liga match online only sometimes in the week and call it Sky sports extra.

It could be this being made available via Red Button and rebranded.
