It easily beats Sci-Fi and similar stations. It is funny women are starting to make or break TV channels and nearly 90% of the advertising is geared towards them.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17556900 Sun, 31 Dec 2006 23:12:19 EDT Re: If.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17538159 dvd536 :

IPTV will be no exception! SAT as well!

Get over it!

Sure, _______ IPTV is cheap now, wait for it... y'all will see.
Those rates will get a nice bump as well. :huh:

*IF* you are lucky enough to get an SD or HD OTA signal, and don't mind not getting cable only channels, I envy you!
I live in a valley. No OTA for me! :(
Dish, hate to say, seems to have problems with stations wanting more cash to let them carry the channel. Remember the Lifetime fiasco?
People actually watch lifetime? most people wouldn't even know it had been dropped.

Actually, it's time for them to sink or swim by what they get in advertising and a small universal monthly fee from the providers. An awfull lot of the channels are nothing but endless repeat crap anyway.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17536754 Thu, 28 Dec 2006 15:02:32 EDT Re: If.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17535668 kyramilan :

IPTV will be cheap till it achieves customers then watch the price hikes.

DirecTV isn't cheap! Once you add the extra receivers, it isn't much better price-wise. Dish, hate to say, seems to have problems with stations wanting more cash to let them carry the channel. Remember the Lifetime fiasco? Ergen is the #1 reason why Dish would never sit on my roof. And, rain in Pensacola makes both tile and go out a lot. Friends have it and some have both cable and sat just because of the rain factor!

FIOS will not be $35 for 5/2 service forever either. Once they get half the market, I bet that becomes $45-50 easy.

Upload is $$$$ and FIOS will be no different that any other ISP on passing along the costs of it. FIOS TV will stay cheap then a price will come.

Cable channels charging ridiculous prices cause your cable bill to go up NOT the cable co. $2 for ESPN? Another $1.50 for ESPN2? Even the frickin' TV Guide channel gets $.25 a month!

It is time for A La Carte Pricing!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17535668 Thu, 28 Dec 2006 11:48:15 EDT Re: If.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17535643 Titus Pullo :
