I can't agree with you. I've had nothing but owned receivers for the past 15 years and I've been on some type of reduced pricing promotion ever since. I'm currently on my fourth consecutive 2 year contract where pricing is frozen during the contract.
I pay $78 all in for an owned Wally with four tuners and DVR capability and the Top 120 (see graphic below). In a couple of months I will call and try to renew the same deal. If I can't, I will probably drop DISH and just use my Tivo's.
I agree.
