When did this become a thing? But we'd need a Hopper 3 and a couple of Joey 4Ks (that's what we had when we left Dish when we moved here in Aug 2019.)

No I realize that. So many people have dropped the RSNs, as a Royals fan I listened to the Royals owner talking about how upset he is that they have priced themselves out of so many providers, and a lot of local Royals fans no longer have access. From everything I am reading including some...

Yeah, I remember thinking how much better it was than the Genie system I had from Directv. But when I moved to streaming, I realized the Hopper 3 hardware and interface is light years beyond any live TV offering in streaming.

When we moved cross country a little over a year ago, we were in an apartment while looking for a house. We had a higher end Spectrum cable package in the apartment. It was simply horrible. I was so used to the Hopper 3 system. The speed for the Spectrum system was SO slow. Only 4 tuners, which...

I'm thinking about going the other direction. When we moved a bit over a year ago, we got YTTV for the temporary apartment we were in, then kept it in the new house. I love no two year contract; if something better comes along, I can cancel with no charge in literally a minute. My wife loves no...

For years as we moved across the country I'd have to change my email address as we changed internet providers. Then gmail.

We had satellite (either Directv or Dish) since 1995, with Dish being our provider for the last 11 years, and overall Dish has the best DVR system and UI of anything we've used. Had a cross country move and switched to Youtube TV (+ Philo) to get all the channels we wanted (including the RSNs...

But do each of those heads represent a profit or a loss when you figure in all of the Directv baggage? I have to believe more a loss if AT&T is being pushed to dump it.

What does Directv have that Charlie wants? He doesn't even want to pay to keep RSNs, he seems to delight in dropping channels to save money/increase profits. I'm sincerely unable to see what he would get for the billions that he feels would make him more money.

Pure FWIW. We had satellite since 1995, either Directv or Dish. When the Hopper 3 system came out I switched to Dish from the Genie system (we have 3 TVs) and never looked back, the Dish interface and Hopper 3 system was so superior it was a no brainer. We really liked the PQ and sound and...

We're using YTTV temporarily while living in an apartment as part of our cross country move, deciding whether to go back to Dish when we move into our new house (close and move in shortly.) Was hoping that Dish would resolve this soon. I know, that's a laugh. We get the RSN on YTTV here (we're...

Well, that is disappointing. We are moving cross country next week, from our house with Dish to an apartment where we will stay until we find a new house. Which may take a month or 6 months, no idea. I got on chat on the Dish site just now to discuss options, and instead of a conversation I felt...

Really? Well that sucks.

Yeah, I've got a YTTV sub going just to see if we could ever move to it. Still really dislike the lack of a "true" guide, but re: this thread (we're now in Birmingham) they kept one of the two Fox Sports channels (FX South) and dropped FX Southeast. Since FX South carries all of the Braves...

Another question (or two) for YTTV vs. the Dish I miss so much: When I go to watch my networks/locals and also local RSN on YTTV, it requires me to allow location checking. If I am out of town, does this mean I can't get my local news, sports, networks, RSN? Second question: I wanted to just...

We're the same. We will record something on our Dish DVR, sometimes move it to the external drive, such as movies or documentaries, and keep them and rewatch them much later. With the ability to add large external HDDs to the Dish DVR, it has more "unlimited" DVR space than YTTV. (I've still got...

I had an unexpected job change, had to move across country to the new job, leaving my wife behind to try to sell the house. In the dead of winter. In a state with miserable winters. So, I've been in an apartment for the last 6 months and without Dish. This is the first time I've been without...

Good to know on this; we will be selling our house and moving across country, but don't know how many months it will be before we move into a new house, so I assume we'll do the Pause option during that time.

What are the other options for RSNs if a person chooses to keep Dish but needs RSNs? (For me that will simply will make Dish that much more expensive.)

I hear your point, and won't argue it isn't valid. But honestly, when my wife and I get home from work and we want to watch our favorite TV shows, and we can't, we just aren't interested in "making a stand" or sacrificing watching the TV we want to watch for some amorphous hope that it will make...

Yep, it looks pretty much like that on my iPhone app too. But if i click on that delete, up top, I just get an "Are you sure you want to delete this episode?" message and no options for multiple episodes.

Actually, that's what i thought too. Then I watched my son's YouTube TV, and he's getting 118 channels, all the main ones that we watch (except History, and its coming - they have a good record of adding channels people want) plus regional sports channels and the major sports channels (e.g...

And I will say, while I am looking at options for when my contract runs out, even though I've had either Directv or Dish since 1995, and Youtube TV looks pretty amazing for the price and channels and responsiveness to customers, nothing I've looked at or experienced is as good as the Dish Hopper...

Yeah, when we lost NBC due to a dispute, they still left the OTA NBC guide info up and allowed you to record, etc.

But in the real world, the one who takes the most damage is the provider. The vast majority of viewers only know suddenly the company they pay to watch TV isn't showing them the channels they're paying for. Period. They don't get pissed off at Fox or ABC or the RSN, they get pissed off at the...
