Hingham, MA | Decline of DSL? I wonder if this is connected to the decline of DSL, for which DirecTV (and Dish) had bundling deals with the telcos, in favor of cable broadband and "next-gen" telco networks like U-Verse and FiOS, which compete with DirecTV for television. No one's really pushing standalone internet like they used to. |

| U-Verse sucks next to Direct TV.

Hingham, MA | None of this changes the fact that U-Verse TV and DirecTV are essentially in the same market and compete with each other, while in the past at&t only sold internet service and promoted bundling DSL and DirecTV's services (though they went with Dish later). |
