Maybe it is stereotypical, but there's also quite a bit of truth to it. I have 2 neighbors in their 80's who still pay all their bills via snail mail. They refuse to do anything online or by automatic draft.

Tubi also has a ton of free movies, TV shows, concerts and documentaries. Ad supported of course, but completely free.

Correct

Nah. There are plenty of other ways to watch what I want.

LOL. I haven't had a Netflix account since the days of DVD by mail. Rent, Rip, Return.

With those numbers I don't see how Dish is going to be able to stay in business much longer.

Back on topic, sort of, I've been getting some interesting offers from Dish since I cancelled a couple of years ago. 2 year price lock on any of their plans and a $500 prepaid debit card. Very tempting.

It wouldn't surprise me if at some point he does by Dish and maybe DTV as well. I haven't been a Dish customer for over 2 years but I'd hate to see them go out of business.

Musk is smart and that's probably why he didn't buy Dish.

He's probably on a roaming plan. When I had Starlink I regularly got between 90-250 Mbps regardless of the time of day.

5G has not panned out the way it was expected to. I know quite a few people who switched from Verizon or T-Mobile Home Internet to Starlink and are much happier with the performance.

Starlink is worldwide and not just in the US. It will continue to grow.

Losing

I cancelled Dish about 2 and a half years ago. They started sending me offers a few months later.

I was a Dish customer for nearly 20 years until I got in on the Starlink beta and finally got decent internet in my neck of the woods. Decided to go all streaming with legal and not so legal apps. I don't really miss Dish, but they're offering me a great deal to come back. Two year price lock on...
