:Dish has got to get its DVR act together. Losing the distant channels really hurt, if they lose DVR capability, Dish will lose the vast majority of DVR users.
They will not lose customers over that. Cable Company DVR's suck (Cablevision is probably the worst) and they still have plenty of customers and the Cable Companies get to charge insane fees for the DVR's. Cablevision charges nearly $17/month for it's DVR which doesn't have nearly as much functionality or user friendliness as the Tivos do.
