So now StarzHD is mpeg2 at 7Mbps? No.. but close

I'm really wondering if it's time to dump the stock (NASDAQ - DISH). Degradation of PQ (especially on premium channels) only plays into the hands of your competitors - especially Verizon's FIOS in the greater Washington, DC area, which is going gangbusters. What is E* thinking about?

Just my two cents.

FIOS and like services have very limited availability and a slow roll-out, they won't be a major threat to cable and satellite for a very long time.

And they haven't been around long enough to figure out that HD-Lite works and people still pay for it. .......

I'm sure they will figure that out in due course, along with revised pricing.

Nah. If they're anything like E*, the price will remain the same. The fees, on the other hand...LOOK OUT!!!
