Its a calculated risk on both providers parts. They save so many millions of dollars not carrying the network, and figure they will loose x number of customers, where as x number of customers will not do anything.
I wonder why they count Adult Swim? Its not a cable network... its a block of shows aired on Cartoon Network.
Edit: Never mind. You're right, it's not worth it.Read earlier posts. I just edited this post because I really am not in the mood to continue this mindless argument with you. You aren't worth my time Sam. You jump into a conversation late read one of my responses to other post and have twenty comments. This is something I will make sure I don't do in the future to others. I did make sense. That's all I have to say to you.
Thank you for posting this. Has Dish put up a page like this? I didn't see one. Interesting.
AMC is the provider. Dish/ATT/DirecTV/Cable are carriers.This may prove to be great for providers that are coming up for renewal with AMC in the future with two providers agreeing about the price of carriage.
Depends on how you look at it I guess. AMC provides television programming. Dish/ATT/DirecTV/Cable provide pay TV services.AMC is the provider. Dish/ATT/DirecTV/Cable are carriers.

Plus, a quick Google search of "TV providers" returns a lot of sites referring to Dish/ATT/DirecTV/Cable....
Terminology aside. It does make the Dish AMC dispute more interesting.
$80/month total for DirecTV service, or $80 more a month for DirecTV than you are paying for Dish?I for one won't drop DISH and move to Directv at $80+ a month for one channel. I'd end up losing a bunch of HD channels that Directv doesn't carry...BBC AMERICA, EPIX 1,2,3, G4, HISTORY iNTERNATIONAL, INDIE & RETROPLEX, INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY, NATGEOWILD, PIXL, TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES, etc. If DISH does drop AMC I think AMC will soon realize that they are the real loser.
