    Rumor? Eastern arc is being retired

    By 2030 or sooner, its over. DISH needs to use the DISH interface and guides and stream it with Sling TV pricing and packs you can add or subtract to save money. Sling TV becomes Streaming DISH TV. No need for two versions any longer.

    Rumor? Eastern arc is being retired

    So we went to EA in 2008 and now we are going back to just western Arc period? What happens to 61.5 and 72.7 sats now? I also assume that we are going to more streaming channels to take the place of more of the satellite channels - like the SD ones. So you could get them in HD and you can...

    Strange HWS incident......

    Check your connections on the usb ota tuner and make sure it is plugged in firmly. Wouldn't hurt to rescan the ota channels as well. If it happens again might look at replacing the ota tuner. Also check your snap module is plugged in and if not you could remove it and plug back in firmly. My...

    Roof Repair - Reinstall Dish

    The Roofers will just leave it on the ground and you will still need a DISH tech to come back and reinstall it where it goes. I think they will reinstall it since you can get once a year a free move if you have DISH protect, but you could call and ask. My mom and dad had their ota antenna...

    Dish Survey on New Guide

    Sling TV/Air TV does a pretty good job of sub channel guide for almost all my locals. There is like 6 recent sub channels that don't have it. My Tablo does a good job too and I do get guide information for almost all of them.

    Hopper Guide Missing HD designation

    I don't see why DISH doesn't go ahead and migrate all the SD movie channels to streaming HD channels since you can record them now. I hate watching movies in SD and have never even tried to watch them if they are in SD. I saw at my buddy's house that HBO is all HD now, including the...

    Traditional Providers Losses, 4th Quarter 2024 Edition

    Down to 5 million satellite customers now. So around 1 million a year gone each year DISH should be out of the satellite business by 2030 if not sooner. I still say they should merge DISH and Sling together. Make it with the better interface of DISH and their guides etc, but use the sling...

    EchoStar Announces Financial Results

    Down to 5 million sat customers. About a million a year they lose. So in 5 years in 2030 or sooner, no more satellite business.

    More and more streaming FAST channels on DISH

    Do you think they will work towards being able to record more streaming channels at the same time like Sling TV can do with their cloud dvr? Maybe add a Cloud DVR feature to the Hopper receiver? It would certainly make it a better receiver and the older Hopper with Sling could be more useful...

    Netflix Looking to Take NFL’s Sunday Afternoon Games from Fox and CBS in Next Media Deal

    Netflix is over rated. I spend over $25.42 a month for HD version of their service and my parents are on my account. I rarely even watch Netflix. If it becomes a sports oriented service and the prices continue to inflate, I will cut this out quickly. I have NO interest in sports at all...

    YouTubeTv and CBS/Paramount

    Still fighting over carriage of any channel makes it just like Cable /satellite. That is the reason why people went to streaming in the first place.

    YouTubeTv and CBS/Paramount

    On top of the last one they just had? Sounds like to me You tube TV has turned into streaming cable. No more use to me if they are fighting over locals again. Now if find a way to separate the locals from the rest of the channels and make then an add on , I can see them still being of some...

    How things have changed

    For me I watch on Monday , Tuesday and Thursday nights. I don't watch network tv on Friday, Saturday or Sunday nights. Wednesday only two 30 minute comedies. The rest I fill with streaming shows or movies.

    More and more streaming FAST channels on DISH

    I don' think these channels are really worth much. They have a ton of commercials and dead space while a sign says "We will be back soon." It makes watching anything like torture. I tried to watch a horror movie at my buddy's house on his receiver and it was like 3 minutes of show and 4...

    The Hunting Party - NBC

    So serial killer of the week show. I like the lead woman as I watched her in Manifest. I will give it a watch, but if it gets too repetitive I will drop it.

    A classic TV Show is returning

    She a bit old to be a Vampire Slayer these days. Plus her home town was sucked into hell in the end. So I take it the show will be somewhere else. I might give it a try to see what its about.

    Traditional Providers Losses, 4th Quarter 2024 Edition

    I had a night hawk router for few years ,but it never reached the whole house with extenders. Spectrum wifi router reaches all over my house and my yard. They used to not charge for the router, but now they are and the price keeps on going up.
