not that I'm aware of but in most areas where the RSN fee is charged Dish has far fewer RSN's in those markets (NY, California as examples)
DISH does not have a any regional sports fee's. From everything I have read DirecTV started that fee in L.A. due to having multiple RSN's.
See I didn't know they started in New York, but it is understandable, there are 4 RSN's in New York I believe. MSG, MSG+, SNY and YES isn't it?
You need to subscribe to AT120+ or higher to get your rsn. You may be able to get more if you get the Multi Sports package.
NY was the original with the 4 RSN's you mentioned
LA was added later. Use to just be FS West and Prime Ticket there but now with the Lakers Network (TWCS) they added that fee...some areas even get the CSN Bay area and California too which is the northern Cali area....

CSN Bay Area and CSN California are included "for free" in AT120+ and above.
However, commercial customers need to pay two separate fees for them.
Well I can see Dish not charging a fee for NY rsns. After all you have to carry those channels before you charge for them.

true
I am aware of that but what I was saying is Directv subs who have JUST those 2 RSN's are not charged the RSN fee
There are some areas of California (and most of Nevada) that get BOTH the LA area RSN's AND the Bay area/northern California RSN's.
Dish does not have a regional sports fee for RSN's but they raised the price of AT120+ by an extra $5 and now it is $10 more than AT120 whereas it was only $5 more.
So one could say everyone with RSN's pays the extra regional sports fee at Dish.
