Altice ( formerly Cablevision) reported, lost 72,000.

Fubo lost 61,000.
Now up to 1,063,000 lost this quarter.
Fubo has to be getting pretty close to shutting down, sub count keeps getting lower, only has 1.45 million subscribers left ( compared to YTTV 8 Million), lost $25.8 Million, down to $161 Million cash on hand.
Yet they are predicting they will have 1,605,000 to 1,625,000 subscribers by the 3rd quarter, which is over a 150,000 gain and 1,725,000 to 1,745,000 paid subscribers by the end of 2024.
Since Venu caters to the same audience and YTTV, both of them has the main sports channels ( except the RSNs) and a less expensive price, especially Venu, good luck at getting that number.
Fubo Closed Q2 2024 With 26% Year-over-Year Revenue Growth, 24% Year-over-Year Subscriber Growth and Exceeded Guidance in North America; Global Business Achieved 6th Consecutive Quarter of Year-over-Year Improvement in Profitability Metrics
NEW YORK, August 06, 2024--FuboTV Inc. (d/b/a/ Fubo) (NYSE: FUBO), the leading sports-first live TV streaming platform, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. The second quarter marked Fubo’s sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year (YoY) improvement...
Dish / Echostar numbers are out.
While Dish lost more ( about 190,000) , gains for Sling helped to offset those losses, Net Pay-TV subscribers decreased approximately 104,000 in the second quarter.
So, now at 1,267,000 gone.

So, Sling added 86,000 subs? I wonder if that the value proposition of Sling is appealing given the cooling economy. I've seen lots of reports talking about people scaling back their expenditures.Dish / Echostar numbers are out.

Sling TV is much cheaper for programming and no FEES like the satellite version. Unless you count the $5.00 for a bigger cloud to record things on the dvr part of the app. You can also use an Air tv device like 2 tuner or 4 tuner Air Tv Anywhere and an antenna and your own hard drive and create a place to record all the ota networks and it is integrated into the Sling TV app. Complete guide data for the ota locals/sub channels as wel, unlike DISH sat service. l So you can save a lot of money compared to any other service.
My mom and Dad I put on this service with sling Blue for $45.00 and they only add sling orange for the sports channels in the fall and cut it off come the next year. Saves more money. I actually have the four tuner Air Tv Anywhere device at my house and use my antenna for them to have their ota locals - since they got their roof replaced and they didn't put back the antenna. They watch them using the Sling App. Cuts down on trips over there to fix what ever problem they are having with their locals, since I control them here.
Final numbers are kind of out-
At 1,214,000 lost this quarter, but that does not include the estimated numbers from Cox, DirecTV and YTTV.
Cox has been averaging 200,000 lost per quarter (estimated).
DirecTV has been averaging 500,000 lost per quarter ( thanks to Fitch Reporting, we know the numbers).
YTTV had a estimated lost of 150,000 last quarter, this quarter is anyone's guess.
So, this quarter, a estimated loss of 1.7M, without YTTV, could of gained or lost, usually we find out in about a month.
Along we the loss of 2.3M in the first quarter, 4M lost in 2024 at the midway point.

Q2 Cord-Cutting Update: Most U.S. Operators Bled Fewer Customers, But Revenue Is Beginning To Take a Serious Hit
Most publicly traded U.S. pay TV operators lost fewer subscribers in Q2
www.nexttv.com
Final number are out from the News' services.
Highlights-
With the estimated loss of DirecTV, we are at 1.62 million subs in Q2 lost.
4 Million lost for the first 6 Months of the year.
All of paid Live TV ( Traditional, Streaming) is at of 68.76 million.
Cable/Satellite is at, roughly, 50 Million, in 2017, they had 100 Million, that means they have lost half of their subscribers in just 7 years.
If Paid Live TV lose another 4 Million in the second half of 2024, by the end of the year, more households will not have a Live TV Service then do ( out of 131M Households in the United States).
YTTV only gained 50,000, Hulu Live, Fubo, etc, all lost subscribers, so people are just giving up on Live TV, about 1.5 Million this quarter, over 62 Million Households total, do not have Traditional Paid Live TV as of now.
Second quarter results left pay-TV subscribers declining at a rate of 6.9%, slightly worse than the -6.8%.
But, taking out vMVPDs (YTTV for example), the rate of decline among "traditional" pay-TV providers (cable, satellite and telco) was -12.6%, worse than -11.3% a year earlier.

US pay-TV sheds 1.62M in Q2... and the Disney-DirecTV blackout doesn't help
US pay-TV lost 1.62 million subs in Q2 and a 'mindboggling' 4 million subs in the first half of 2024, says MoffettNathanson. Meanwhile, a blackout of Disney channels on DirecTV presents an even gloomier outlook for pay-TV.

Browns lose a close one with... The Jets. That is a classic Browns loss (granted, any loss is a classic one it seems). 49'ers, Vikings, and Chiefs remain undefeated. The AFC north have a three way tie at 3-2 for second place.
A big win for the Patriots, and they are now 3-2.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Can't help but wonder if a worker overlooked checking the harness. I rarely ride a roller coaster anymore but when I do I check the harness myself pretty aggressively.

It makes sense, however, I would want more types of restraints, so if one doesn't work, the other does ... the restraints coming over the shoulder I would have expected ... with a Seat belt as last resort.
Fwiw, I inquired with what they use on Coasters at Cedar Point, various Coasters, different restraints according to what the car and track requires ...
NONE of the Coasters at CP use THAT particular system
I'm glad to see ...

Wasn't exactly sure where to post this. Just had a customer come in inquiring about internet. He has HughesNet and had heard good things about mine. He asked if we provided email addresses and it kinda caught me off guard. I said he should be able to keep whatever email he had been using....my sister in law is still using a BellSouth email addy and they haven't been around here for many years. He said he had gotten a letter from HughesNet stating that they had until Nov 16th to save, move, forward, whatever, their Hughesnet emails because they would lose them after that date.
I have never heard of a company simply mass-deleting email accounts (the customer still has his HughesNet service). From what I understand, in the past, the company who was ditching their email service simply sold the customer base to a company like Google.
Anyone else getting this letter. He said he would show it to me tomorrow when I go out there and set up his internet.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

For some reason, the satelliteguys.us site is loading a lot slower than usual on both Chrome on my Asus laptop and Safari on my iPhone.
I'm also seeing longer appearances of the blue bar at the top and the "3 blue bars" loading symbol.
Is anyone else also having the same problem? Thanks in advance.
