Don't know if you guys have been following what's happening in Boston, but Comcast seems to be determined to switch it's NBC programming from WHDH (which has been with NBC since 1995) to WNEU, an NBCUniversal O&O that currently carries Telemundo. The problem is that WNEU's signal is a lot weaker...

Rogers cable in Canada is gonna be broadcasting the first NHL game in 4K tomorrow. Kind of sad nobody here in the states is broadcasting any games in 4K. You'd think the Super Bowl would be the first event in 4K, but I haven't heard anything about that. What do you guys think...

Not a whole lot of changes, but Detroit drops to #13. Washington DC goes up to #7 while Boston drops to #8 and Tampa moves up to #11. http://www.nielsen.com/content/dam/corporate/us/en/docs/solutions/measurement/television/2015-2016-dma-ranks.pdf

I've saw this at Walmart recently. RCA really updated their converter box to the point where you can call it a new OTA DVR. It even has an HDMI port in the back so you can watch and record in HD. It sort of works like the Mediasonic Homeworx box that some have mentioned on here before in that it...

It wasn't really much a choice. It was either Beijing, China or Almaty, Kazakhstan. Beijing won with a vote of 44 to 40. Considering Beijing successfully the 2008 Olympics, I guess this would considered the safer choice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Winter_Olympics

Just got an email from Seeking alpha about this. I guess there was a chance that Starz could have been dropped. But now with the merger, Starz came to an agreement that will cover Directv and U-verse subs.

This morning on my computers, I got Windows 10 icon showing on the bottom right-corner. I clicked on it and showed me how to reserve my free upgrade and when Windows 10 comes out, the system would let me know when to download it. In other words, Microsoft REALLY wants people to upgrade to...

But the deal comes with a contingency: The Comcast-TWC merger would have to be approved first. That way Charter can acquire some markets and subs from the new bigger Comcast. If the Comcast-TWC merger fails, then Charter will not acquire Bright House...

My contract with Directv expired and I'm looking at my options. I looked at Dish's website and I'm not seeing AEP listed anywhere. Did Dish decide to discontinue it for new customers?

Note they already have the rights for the 2016 games as well. I gotta say with all the bad news we've been hearing from them (between the budget problems and now a $55 million lawsuit for wrongfully firing one of its radio stars), it's nice to hear some good news for a change...

I'm sure the TV providers won't be happy, but it's about time. http://www.theverge.com/2014/10/15/6982049/hbo-go-will-offer-standalone-subscription-2015

The first pre-season games start on Sunday. The regular season starts Wednesday October 8th. First Red Wings game is on the 9th against Boston. GO RED WINGS!!!:crowdbounce:grinbounce

Well guys, FS1 has been on for a year, and I think I only tuned in to this channel maybe 7 times since its 1st day on the air. However I have been recording and watching the Australian rules football games every week on FS2 so I can say that channel has a use for me. Anyway, what do you guys...

Well, the first pre-season games start tomorrow. I'm definitely interested in seeing how Matt Stafford and the Lions have supposedly improved with their new coach. Of course we know the pre-season games don't mean anything except for the coaches who have to decide who to keep on the roster...

Don't know why these two stations can't seem to get a stable owner, but it looks like WJRT and WTVG are getting sold again, this time to Gray Broadcasting for $128 Million. A good deal for SJL considering they bought those stations for a mere $30 million in 2010. Both stations are leaders in...

That is of course if Directv fails to renew their exclusivity deal with the NFL. Here's an interesting quote from a very reliable person from Dish: “It’s the only exclusive still left for TV content,” Vivek Khemka, Dish’s senior vice president of product management, said today in an interview...

Well it's summer and I'm looking at antennas again. Never got around to replacing the old rooftop antenna last year because 1) I got really busy with work and 2) I was able to adjust the old one on my end to get CBC regularly from Windsor, ON and therefore gave me a incentive to wait on an...

CNBC reports: Sprint and T-Mobile are close to setting terms for a summertime merger that would be worth about $50 billion, including debt, Dow Jones reported Wednesday afternoon, citing sources. The breakup fee would come in above $1 billion, and the purchase price would total about $40 a...

It was 20 years on May 23rd, 1994 that Fox bought the stations of New World Communications which resulted in some major CBS affiliates switching to Fox causing a major realignment in America's broadcasting industry. Background: As you may remember back in 1993, Fox bought the NFL's NFC Package...

Originally, they had the rights through 2020. That agreement cost $4.4 billion when it was signed just 3 years ago in 2011. The price tag for this 12-year extension: $7.75 Billion.:eek: http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2014/05/07/nbc-olympics-broadcast-rights-2032/8805989/
