[QUOTE="nelson61, post: 4698887, member: 98102"] Satellites are not very expensive. The new ones run maybe 300 million, after launch and last 20 years. So if you have say 5 million customers , the annual cost per customer is $3 per satellite. At most, dish needs 4 satellites, maybe three if they can get their hands on the DirecTV transponders not in use. Combining with direct would get rid of duplicate back office, marketing but customer service would probably stay the same. The thing hitting satellite is program fees. The big improvement in combining with direct would be negotiating program fees when they could walk away and not have the other sat company get the business (locals are the best example). The streamers can cut down to Netflix , prime, or whatever and cut costs. This is the problem area --- programming costs. [/QUOTE]
