Second (third?) creative accounting. Big companies tend to have very little they have to pay the tax man.. by design. Too bad we can't tell the fed we spent all our money on bills and therefore don't need to pay taxes.

Portland (my home town heroes), Golden State, New Orleans, Chicago and Boston! I live on the east coast, so my Blazer games usually don't kick off til after 9pm, but I work evenings, so it tends to work! I really like the Choice because I can go back and watch a game I missed too.

Has anyone been able to use the Broadband yet? I dropped the LP from Dish this year to sub to the Choice Broadband .. I save a lot of money and have ONLY the teams I want, all games in HD, plus I can stream it to my TV and watch games I miss on the archives, so it was a no-brainer.. **edit**...

IMHO, I've experienced better picture quality on other systems, but I really like the Hopper, PTAT and the Whole Home System in general, so Dish wins my $$ hands down. That said, I use the "THX Calibration Tool" on my Pixar's Finding Nemo disk for picture calibration, which works very well ...

Thanks Scott and Thanks Dish!!! And a BIG Happy Birthday to all you SatelliteGuys (and Gals) out there!

I think I was banned from posting momentarily by my first comment ... Apparently my praise of a product made me sound "spammy" for a first-time poster. If I remember correctly, I emailed Scott who turned me back on after I told him I wasn't a spammer. I'm not sure if I saved any "cash" over the...

I don't really expect dish to charge less lol, but I'm willing to bet they make quite a bit more per sub then your average cable company simply because they have more bargaining power.

The rule of thumb is the more subs, the lower fee... Being that dish is (second?) biggest provider, we should be paying second lowest MRC.

I agree..

I would still subscribe to every premium if the AEP package didn't price itself outside my limits. It's their own faults.

Absolutely.. you were heading off someone from saying that you were "looking for a handout". Those type of responses really do get under my skin.. almost as much as DirecTV not budging on their "upgrade" fee.. $300 is laughable, especially after you paid them over $10,000+ in the seven years...

I cringe when I hear people say they aren't looking for a "handout" from their cable service provider. There are no handouts .. you (over)pay for the service you are provided .. you pay an additional "rental" fee for equipment .. when the equipment you rent starts preventing you from enjoying...

I am a Current TV viewer .. I love their Vanguard documentaries and really enjoy their quick "current" stories they air when most channel are blasting the airwaves with commercials. It's been a refreshing break from the norm for a while now. I've tuned into AJ via the web to get news we tend to...

For some reason it has been hard for Dish to provide consistent quality customer service, but there has been a marked uptick the past few years. When I got my second installation done, the technician was way late, so I called and within the hour a technician was at my home. He asked if I...

Very nice GUI .. Very responsive. Great battery life.. I haven't come up on a website not optimized yet. I really like how you can install any applications in the store, even if only built for phone / ipod .. but best of all ?? the price tag. ;)

It was only 18 days between when my third referral "signed up" and I received my iPad. I don't even know what day they got installed lol. Just make sure your referrals sign up for the Hopper.

What promo prices? I've been a Dish sub for a while.. my promo prices all ended a while ago. I got this deal by referring three people to sign up for the Hopper system (which was very easy to do). I am a Google guy, so yes, this is my first iDevice. Would I ever buy a iPad? Never! Not when the...

Just to let everyone know, I didn't even have to call and harass Dish. I randomly got an email this morning from Apple saying my iPad had shipped... I clicked on the tracking and it was "out for delivery". Knowing how hard Dish makes everything, this was actually too easy. ?Thanks Dish!

sry .. but every time they're referred to as FSM's,

I'm more satisfied with Dish now with the Hoppers than I have ever been with any provider. I like having the Sling capability and my wife and I really like the Auto Hop for PTAT... and this is in addition to the multiple TB's of DVR space we have shared between and watchable on any of our four...

Not sure .. But I'd be fine with a cable card lease fee.

http://bizsecurity.about.com/b/2010/03/17/lifelock-settles-lawsuit.htm LifeLock's a scam .. just like CleanMyPC .. Even the CEO's identity was compromised, not once, but TWELVE times. http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/05/lifelock-identity-theft/

I want a Cable-Card so I can use TiVo. Is there a particular reason as to why both Dish and DirecTV don't offer them?

ShintNet :) ..I'd like to think Google would infuse quite a bit of cash if they get the promise of piggybacking the network.

Charlies a baller .. always has been and always will be
