    What’s keeping you guys with Dish Network…

    Just curious to see why some of us on here are still on satellite. For me, the biggest reasons are there is no OTT service with no channel gaps and YouTube TV still not bringing back the MLB network…

    Pursuit moving to streaming

    Just got the message on my guide that The Pursuit Channel 393 is moving to a streaming platform so your hopper will now have to be connected to the Internet.

    After 24 hours with DirecTV now...

    glad I didn't cancel my DirecTV account completely and we are now back on it as the first 24 hours with DirecTV now were a total disaster. Buffering, channels the family couldn't live without, and they didn't know how to navigate the whole damn thing. Safe to say that streaming is not for...

    Adiós SiriusXM for now

    You took away my Backspin and Regional Mexican programming, preempt channels for artists I could care less about, and to top it off you have become very repetitive. Is this goodbye forever, who knows but until then I'm letting YT music take care of my music needs.

    Need thoughts on SuddenLink...

    My mom is moving to Amarillo and is conflicted on whether to get Satellite and internet through AT&T or do a triple play with Suddenlink. I myself would go back to cable as a last resort (Very happy with Satellite) but I would like some thoughts from any SuddenLink subs out there.

    Returning to Dish and have one question

    First of, I am excited to be coming back to Dish after a miserable year and a half with the D*. My question before i switch is will Dish let me have 2 hoppers like I did before or is it one per household. If it's only one I still will be switching, anything beats giving another dime to Directv.

    CableOne done with cable?

    So here we are in 2018 and CableOne is going on year 4 with no Viacom channels and it's looking like they are never going to negotiate a contract. In fact they no longer offer pay per view at all, no sports packages, no VOD, missing several key channels, ancient equipment(unless you get a Tivo...
