Viacom needs to hook up with CBS again or find a buyer ASAP. They are in deep trouble to say the least.

Can someone explain what the situation is here? Sling TV added YES (along with other FOX owned RSN's) last week. This is a bit amazing considering DISH's history with YES. Are they now negotiating contracts for Sling that aren't tied to the satellite service? If so, this presents a lot of...

That's what I figured. No idea what provider they were using. I assume it was either DirecTV, Cablevision or Verizon Fios. Something seems fishy about this whole thing. I'm beginning to think illegal setup to avoid the commercial license.

I was at a bar very close to my house last Friday evening (in the NJ burbs just outside NYC) and the local bar was showing the Yankee/Angel game on FSAngels. I was a little surprised by this but did not question it. I was under the assumption that the blackout rules protect the local team by...

I assume you are referring to Maude getting an abortion? I mean it was a role she played. Was it controversial? I suppose since it stirred people up. The woman has passed and she was probably one of the most remarkable leading females in television history. I think its unfair to attack...

As everyone knows the N is currently on 9576, are they ever going to reposition this? I mean it took forever just to get the N so I can't imagine they are in a hurry to find a better spot for it. Also, why is Nick GAS still on the air? What is going on with this?

Figured as much. The storm is terrible.

Was watching the tail end of 24 and now I am seeing a "Sorry for the interruption" slate. WABC is out as well here in NJ.

I'd have to go with the Visionsat IV-200. FTA is great but a PVR would make the experience that much better.

Has anyone lost distants in the NYC DMA? I have the all LA feeds (ABC, CBS, NBC) with the exception of FOX. They have yet to be turned off. Are they turning off people in rurual areas first then O&O or is it just totally random? I am trying to prepare myself for the inevitable. At least...

Not sure if anyone has discussed this yet as I haven't read through the entire thread, but this merger would become more likely if Dish/DirecTV agreed to give spectrum to another interested satellite party as a result. To those of you who say, whats the point of that? Well, a combined company...

It seems to me from what I read on here week to week that DISH's satellite capacity seems to be somewhat messy and disorganized. Obviously, E* 10 will clear a lot of that up with the spotbeams and the locals. Will DISH ever convert all its programming to MPEG4 in order to increase capacity on...

I never thought I would say this. Charlie actually came through.

Hell freezes over, Film at 11

I am a DISH Network subscriber. Subscribing to MLB Extra Innings seems fruitless due to the lack of RSN's available. YES, MASN, SNY, SportsNet Philadelphia. Also MLB EI does NOT provide the OTA feeds (e.x. WWOR9 carrying a Yankee game) where as MLB.TV does. I am in the NY territory claimed by...

I know we can all debate the SNY situation forever. In my opinion, its like this. If we don't have SNY by this upcoming weekend, we're never going to have it. It is THAT simple. Think about it. If they really wanted to add this, they aren't going to do this in like July around the...

I subscribe to DISH and have come to the conclusion, I'll never have YES or SNY. These are the ONLY two channels I really want and can't get with DISH and Cablevision wants to give me a nice mugging to get them. Basically, my question is this: Can I sign up with DirecTV lets say for the...

SNY on E* is a LOST CAUSE. I would not be surprised if it disappears in the uplink activity this week or next. If you want SNY, YES, and the other two RSNs, give DirecTV a call.

In NY, the best option for baseball if you don't want to switch to D* is digital cable. More baseball in HD than anyone else can offer.

Well, once again DISH acts like the #2 Satellite Company. Why am I not surprised? I cant wait to see the dishes go down and the DirecT ones go up.

I'm probably going to get flamed for this. These RSN examples prove that a flat-rate pricing scheme DOES NOT work. The price of packages should be based on region (zip code). Of course, this will never happen but as you go from place to place within the United States, its really an economy of...

SNY = Probably not going to happen. Why? Not because Charlie is cheap because the market penetration in the NY DMA is weak ever since YES. I live about 10-15 miles west of NYC and there are hardly any DISH Network dishes up. However, I see at least 3-5 DirecTV dishes PER STREET...

It is truly unbelievable that MSG/FSNY are basically junk and their costs INCREASE when they LOSE professional teams. What is the deal with that?! I've really had enough of this nonsense. I partly blame DISH for screwing everyone in NY but this is really getting out of hand. Why should...

I would love SNY on E* but I have a feeling everyone including myself is going to take yet another RSN fall when we don't get this channel and D* does. Unfortunately, my parents control the TV in my house or I would have had D* years ago for YES. The odd's of E* ponying up some dollars to...
