    Could Viacom Channels Go *Poof* This Week?

    It's correct, although I'm not sure why you put Funimation channel next to Nickelodeon.

    Could Viacom Channels Go *Poof* This Week?

    He's talking about Byron Allen's Entertainment Studio channels. Comedy.TV happens to be one of them. http://comedy.tv/ Both Directv and U-verse started carrying them a couple of months ago.

    Could Viacom Channels Go *Poof* This Week?

    Back then in '04, Viacom had more leverage because they owned CBS (and as a result, their O&Os). If the idiots at Viacom had any brains, they would have kept CBS and not spin it off into a separate company in '06.

    Could Viacom Channels Go *Poof* This Week?

    Here's the most interesting part of that website that could be true or false. "The few small providers that no longer carry Viacom networks have admitted that they decided to do so in order to focus solely on growing their high margin broadband businesses, which DISH does not provide. As a...

    Could Viacom Channels Go *Poof* This Week?

    The only Viacom channel worth watching is Comedy Central. If Nickelodeon would've kept all of the game shows from the '90s (before they came up with spongebob), that channel would've been worth keeping too.

    DISH Comcast Dispute?

    No updates, but in this case, no news is good news.;)

    dish live 4k?

    More than likely, a few cable networks would go to 4K first. As for the broadcast networks, well it's a lot more complicated. We have to wait and see if and when the new ATSC 3.0 system will get finalized and approved by the FCC, which could take at least another year...

    Starz & Encore?

    I don't really care for the new look, I know Starz is in the middle of trying to rebrand themselves...again. By the way, 2016 is the last year Starz will have first-run rights to Disney before those rights turn over to Netflix. Supposedly, Starz will use the savings from ending that contract to...

    Dish Network CEO Hints At Hard Line In Viacom Renewal Talks, Calls Extension A “Positive”

    I wonder if Viacom would block all of their content online on everybody again. Like they did when they had their fight with Directv 4 years ago.

    What would happen if DISH drops Viacom?

    Nope. They'll ban everyone from viewing their shows online (regardless of TV or internet provider) like they did during the Directv fight in 2012.

    DISH urges FCC to take immediate action against Sinclair

    Dish and Sinclair talks continue. http://deadline.com/2015/08/dish-sinclair-stand-off-could-darken-153-local-channels-dish-says-1201499796/ Honestly, the FCC and Congress need to make a new law to limit the amount of TV stations and affiliate group can own. Sinclair should NOT be allowed to own...

    DISH & Graham Media Dispute

    Wow. I don't think WDIV has ever gotten dropped from any provider. Sucks for my neighbor as he just went back to Dish from Directv.

    8PSK Conversion Update as of 6/9/15

    Locals will probably be the last thing they convert to 8PSK.

    8PSK Conversion Update...

    All of the RSNs owned by Fox have letterboxed their SD feeds as well. Face it. HD is the standard now and it's time all of the TV providers treat it as the standard and not as a privilege.

    8PSK Conversion Update...

    There are too many receivers out there for Dish to replace for them to go MPEG-4 on Western Arc. I'm sure that's the plan in the long term, but only when Dish believes the cost to do it is manageable.

    DISH LATINO Launching on Eastern Arc June 25th

    So is this a sign that Dish is giving up the 77 slot in the long term?

    8PSK Conversion Update as of 6/9/15

    So basically, the niche channels will be converted first, then the more popular ones. I know Dish is trying to give customers multiple warnings about this, but otoh, customers have had over a year to make the upgrades. If Dish still has to deal with a lot of phone calls about this, then I guess...

    8PSK Conversion Update...

    Yup, it's about time. I wouldn't be in a hurry to launch a 4K channel. Focus on adding any IMPORTANT HD channels that are missing and improving the PQ (which was decent to begin with) then figure out how to do 4K down the road.

    What will Dish do about HBO?

    Still no real differences to justify a new name: What is the difference between HBO GO® and HBO NOW?? HBO GO® is HBO's authenticated online streaming service, available at no additional cost to HBO subscribers through their participating television provider. HBO NOW? is a new, standalone...
