Exactly. I mentioned this quote in the other thread: Judge Subramanian noted the solution for Disney is to negotiate a new license that forbids the short term passes. "As the parties agreed at oral argument, that negotiation is around the corner, given that the License expires in less than a...

Today, Disney was denied an injunction against Dish for the $4.99 daily pass. Reason I bring it up in this thread: Judge Subramanian noted the solution for Disney is to negotiate a new license that forbids the short term passes. "As the parties agreed at oral argument, that negotiation is...

Yeah - some of the content is on Cowboy Channel where there was overlap between Cowboy Channel and Cowgirl Channel. But some of the shows that were specific to Cowgirl Channel is now only on Cowboy Channel+, which costs an extra $8.99 a month. I never spent time watching the channel myself. I...

Yes! This is what I do! The Dish OTA tuner for some of the channels have such a low signal for me, but then my Zapperbox or the TV tuner plays them with no problem. Also, I live in a woody area, and the signal strength varies when leaves are on the trees vs when they aren't, and it seems like...

Got it - I saw CONUS and I was thinking CONUS transponders vs spotbeams.

I am confused on this - wasn't there a satellite that was supposed to give 110 a lot of spotbeams, not a CONUS satellite. Is there a 3rd satellite not listed?

I was always told to be careful of surveys and look at all the information, not just pick the part of the survey that proves my point. This seems to be the case.

There might be another article that Jimbo saw, but on my Google news feed, this is the one that came up last evening. It was this survey - a survey of 1,107 people. I could see someone misquoting the first paragraph and leaving out the last phrase: "Nearly 25% of YouTube TV subscribers have...

I do not know on that. It is no longer streaming on Dish Anywhere either. The Pursuit website says it is available on 393 on Dish.

Movie Sphere Gold has been added to channel 298. This is an OTA subchannel here in Chicago and has some great movies on it. It was added to 119, TP 16.
