Dish Bankruptcy - Business as Usual

[navychop]

You ESPECIALLY don't want to replace a good plasma! Wait until you MUST have UHD. Which may be at your funeral!

it's been how long and we still don't have fulltime UHD only on blu ray discs . in japan there using 8k though it's not fulltime but over there 4k is more adopted than over here.

unless they might want a nice OLED

 

[navychop]

That plasma will likely outlast every OLED made to date!

And keep its blacks!

I've looked back to August of last year and see no posts you've made that have been deleted.

It is possible I've missed something but, can you tell me when you posted and what was supposedly deleted ?

It was a comment I made about a friend of mine in Texas who works for SpaceX and loves it and also a comment I made about how the perception of Elon has flipped recently.

Last thing I can see of yours that you posted that staff deleted was in 2024.

Are you sure you hit post?

Do people keep them till they die?

I cycle mine out every three years or so.

Someone gets a deal on a still REALLY good tv, I get a discount on a better one.

I'm not sure how long TVs would last now tbh, my last plasma I sold was at least a decade ago. Probably more.


Those however, I did love them. The tech simply passed them by.

The majority of new scripted shows and movies on streaming services are in 4K.

Also, some new content that is on Broadcast/Cable Channels in 1080i/720P, is in 4K on those services, like most CBS and FX Shows, content from other channels, is in real ( not up converted)1080P, which is still much better then you get from Live TV Providers.

I see the eardemons post. I don't anything to moderate.

I still don't see his post that was deleted. If it was. Staff would see it.


I'm any case, nothing that I can see.

Maybe some other staff can chime in. Idk.

Ask Scott, perhaps a site database glitch deleted it. That's happened before...

All you need is a streaming box such as Roku, Google TV streamer or ONN 4k box from Walmart connected to your TV.

I am going to buy the google streamer at wallmart. After 28 years with dish. Now i herd they are going to increase the price monday. I am paying $109 for americas 250 until end of Ocotober. I will test google tv, My question is can you channel surf youtube tv like dish VIP-211k receiver with google tv streamer? Dish lost more customers according to report today. The way it is going it will be zero customers i dont see too many satellite dishes on houses both dish and directv. But easy to operate both dish and directv. Thanks

directv stream has a cable like experience. but each streaming box is 10.00 a month for the gemini airs. that's a lease fee to.

What's neat is you can sideload these Android boxes with a whole bunch of internet sources and with a VPN watch just about anything you would want!
