Re: While the natural reaction might be

Well now you know why they want to own a satellite company !

They can open up their dsl offering and bring Hd VOD via the dsl service. And use the home zone box to deliver the tv from the satellites.

It can be a very good deal if done right. But it really is scary to see how they dropped the ball and should just stop the dsl roll out.

In my mind using home zone is a great idea. Use the dsl for VOD and avoid the local contract for cable tv. Since it can come over the internet it can free at&t.

Now they stop stringing these crappy dsl services and buy dishnetwork , roll out home zone with the dishnetwork gear with VOD , and move over to rolling fiber to the home for voice , and data , and maybe even tv for people who can't get the service because they are being blocked by trees.

DirecTV is doing VoD via the Internet right now on a limted basis, inc. an HD channel. All you need is an HR20-700 and the software. You'll see it opened up next yr to all HR20's.

So, at&t has already missed that bandwagon.

Exactly my point why buying dish may be a better buy.Once thats done then the main pitch for cable , which was VOD , is gone for both satellite services.
