Re: possibilities
That is not Charlie Ergen's beat.
He realizes that big dish is dead for the little consumers, so he buys the content provider , the medium paths , and the end tools to get content to the subscribers in different ways.
Look at the history , Echostar he formed to send satellite content to little dish subscribers. He is partnering with many of the dsl providers , I wouldn't be to surprised to see him buy a chunk of earthlink for the carrier contracts they have in TW and some Comcast areas plus add clearwire. That gives him the ip medium. Now with sling it gives him the end point and the point to send it over to customers who are away from home.
I doubt they will change anything.
