    I see your point, but all 2 million accounts won't have 3 TV's. Still, your valid point is that it is a large number.

    Here's another idea--a monthly charge until the box is xx% paid for, then that charge goes away. That would be a terrific deal for BHN. Boxes would get paid for, and later many would be turned in. They could be reissued and charges resume even though a previous customer paid for it.

    just doing very rough math, it would take over 5 years to pay off an average box. Honestly, 5 years tends to be an average number of years your DVR will last you (some longer, some less). Thats assuming the new dvr's dont cost more then the old ones (which im sure they do).
