    OnSat out of business

    Latest news is that Orbit will be taking over OnSat's subscribers. I guess good news but still a little sad to see them go.

    OnSat out of business

    Actually OnSat has been publishing DCII progamming for some time. 4DTV guides are painfully slow and a magazine is still nice. In addition they published wild feeds on their website. The latest rumor is that OnSat is selling most operations to Orbit Magazine. We shall see how all this turns out.

    According to ditkomaniac over at satforums, OnSat published its last issue and will go out of business. Sad to see this because it really shows how low C-Band subs have really dropped.

    Cablevision Removing Analog Services

    Scott I am confused about this a bit. I looked at the channel guide and do not see Galavision listed. I do not think any city in CV's footprint has it at all. CSPAN is already digital only. Was this an old memo? or was this an official notification?

    Dish courtesy call

    Remember Scott Peterson killed his wife and Dish Network turned over records of his DVR? Dish had a lot of info of what his actions were down to the keystroke. I can only imagine they have improved the technology since then. They also sell the viewership records in aggregate to Nielsen

    Fox News Sues Echostar

    Fox Business is complete crap - We tried it for a few days at work but the novelty soon wore off and quickly switched back to CNBC. Pretty graphics and good looking women only get you so far. When it comes to hard news - that relies on accuracy and no fluff Fox falters. I really do not know...
