Yep. It was fun while it lasted.

We will be back to how long till DirecTV or Dish stops providing service.

Oh there will be some bored writer somewhere that will try to revive the talk of one or the other buying the other one.

Would DTV still want to pick up Dish at fire sale?

Echostar is actually worth more right now, because of their assets, spectrum, wireless phone service, Hughes Satellite and of course Dish.

They are just very cash poor right now and high debt.

DirecTV is just TV, none of the other assets, still carrying debt, not as much as Echostar, about $10B
