    how much does dish pay for a channel

    I think the price is per sub not per customer. I am sure not every single dish customer has espn in their monthly subscription. I only suscribe to international channels and don't have espn so I don't think dish will be paying $5 to espn for me even though i don't even have espn in my package...

    how long after leaving until you become new customer?

    I think once u are in their system, u are in there forever. however what you can do is use some one else's name in your home to sign up. I belive the address does not matter much even if dish was installed there before, as long as the name is different, you can get new customers deals.
