Yeah right....

I will believe it when I see it. 100 HD networks are not going to launch this year, let alone 50 HD networks. 100 HD networks is a lot of backhaul bandwidth to find too.

As someone who had direct insight into the designs and equipment used by DTV for HD content, I can tell you that they're building high cap pipes utilizing OC-192s and up, best of breed optical gear, as well as 10G in the cores at broadcast centers. They'll have plenty of capacity and bandwidth to push 100+ channels, plus Internet traffic. Also, they tapped the gear vendors to help with build-out and some design.

Who cares what equipment they use on the ground for local transport, what matters is what's in the air. If their birds don't have the capacity to offer "100s" of full resolution HD channels, what good are 10gig equipment. Providing broadband service via the sats is the same thing. If they don't have enough transponders and utilizing the latest in sat technology, all of what you said doesn't matter.
