120+ actually includes (1) non-sports channels over what 120 offers. Pretty stupid as I'm certain Dish markets it as simply adding your regional sports network. The added channels is FXX, which has (1) show I like. I went from 120 to 120+ a few months ago only to get the Big 10 Network and will likely drop it back to just 120.
Yep, only reason I had it was SEC Network.

Yup, with all the new promotions and recent management changes at dish they are under direct orders from our favorite billionaire to "Make Dish Great Again!"
HaHa we see they all ready failure in my book so far
1: Maximum number of TV Show Favorites one can have.
I want Unlimited

2: Do multi DVR work in tandem as sharing a master list of Favorites and Recording resource by pooling in to a central list for all device.
Another words a main master server with slave device kind like an attached network tuner device
Need less to say a pair Hopper DVR don't work in tandem and we are only allow one Super Joey.

3: Mark TV show as all ready watch in the Guide ? and dose it show up a watch in the TV guide with some kind of icon.
I want this.

4: Is there an option to delete a TV show and mark it as wrong/bad recording where it can be automatic be rescheduled the show or moive.
The Hopper half @#$ work but sometime I manual rescheduled

5: Dose the DVR save a data base of previous watch TV show which is very important in keeping track of Frist Runs and ReRuns
The Hopper: No (You end up with duplicate recordings even after one day what a joke)

6: Can the DVR save the data base of my Favorites and Previous watch mark TV show that can be exported Online (Cloud) or by USB flash drive for backup
Dish Network Hopper: Yes Favorites Only BooHoo

7: Apps supported for DLNA/UPnP AV server softwre for Photo, Muisc and Video you know like Emby, Plex, PlayOn and so on.
Dish Network Hopper: No App support but has build in Home Media Brower which sink

8: Max Number of Tuner per device.
Hopper what a joke only 3 tuner I want 8 tuner

9 Dish Anywhere and Explore
iOS it Sinks
Andoird it Sinks
Windows Web Brower Plug-in Sink crash prone
Where Windows 10 App ??

Maybe dish could sell your self off to Google so that way we can get a Real DVR Software

Saw my parent's cable bill from the local podunk cable company last night and damn near fainted. I would never complain about Dish (or Direct) price-wise after seeing that. (They live in an apartment...sadly, a Dish isn't feasible in their location, even if they wanted it).

Won't work on me. I'll stay with my grandfathered $7 DVR fee. .......
That brings up another question I don't think was answered. If I change programming packages, will that trigger a "change" that would make me go to the $10 DVR fee?

Not changing my mind either. :)

I don't believe there has been a package change that incurred new equipment fees. It didn't with the 508 receivers or when Hopper fees were grandfathered for awhile.

darn it. Wish it would ;)

Hey maybe bluegras can ask for an app like that to be put in the Hawper :D
Not till after CES, he can't. Maybe he will email Dish and remote start company to work on it. We will have information on how they have been in process for months now, and it will be soon.

Curious if a particular receiver installed in another room such as Super Joey or Wally with 4K functionality could output 4K through the room where the Hopper is with an app that Dish could add to the existing Hoppers streaming it over moca or internet.
