    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    You have services like MAX, Peacock, Paramount plus and even Disney + that are all not doing well and most of them have already raised their rates a few times already. Except for Peacock (which I watch WWE Wrestling events on) the others I sign up for a month and cancel them, then go back and...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Exactly. They were publicly TRAINED not to stay by the general loss of good regard for the provider (vs. competitor) owing to their customer-negative business practices, said training then being REINFORCED by increasing freebies handed out for switching providers. IOW DiSH found itself...

    Dish Hopper 4 with much larger Hard drive???

    I've never really figured out why the 2G internal HD is partitioned into two 1 Gig partitions. One is to store the programs and recordings and prime-time any-time. The other is for Dish On Demand and other loaded shows. After all this time, I think that Dish would look at the stats and see...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    But was used as a excuse why per sub fees went up so much, because of the lost advertising revenue. That is why On Demand was pushed so hard, forced advertising, but all that did, was help create streaming services, which were basically ON Demand. Both my kids, 29/34, have never had a Live TV...

    If the power supply for your antenna breaks, can you use a different one?

    People love amplified antennas. While there’s no substitute for a giant antenna on the roof, an amplified antenna can make the most of a small space. A clean, modern amplifier helps weak signals travel over a cable to your television without getting lost. Today’s antennas are designed to last...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    It’s content. Owners stop providing it to cablecos and satcos, hoping to keep all the largess to themselves. Less of interest available on the traditional providers. Churn.

    Why are cell towers even necessary?

    Everyone has a cell phone. Of course they do. It’s 2024. We hardly even stop anymore to think of the little marvels in our pockets. Yet, as much as we love cell phones, we hate cell towers. They’re big, they’re ugly, and they seem like they’re everywhere. Why do we even need them when our phones...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    On the other hand, lots of people here were churning for whatever 2 year deal they could get their hands on. It is hard to fight for customers to stay when they have no intention of staying at all. - DVR killed ad rates - Newer generation has weened away from Cable/Sat packages altogether -...

    Dune (2020)

    I watched it, cut too much and changed too much from the book, felt rushed, yet I was still bored. The book is so dense, even with 2 movies, still not enough time.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    BECAUSE they had shot themselves in the feet so many times. If they had stuck to a model of "customer first" rather than chiseling at every turn, including supporting & promoting local responsible servicing, they wouldn't have had to go to such progressively greater extents of "freebies" to keep...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    They are having problems because of lost per sub fees, advertising revenue way down also. While true, streaming has lost money at first, but that is true for all businesses. For example, both DirecTV and Netflix, it had taken them 6 years before their first profitable quarter, Dish and Amazon...
