said by fldiver :If they would not let DTV and Echostar merge why on EARTH would the govt sanction this abysmal idea. I am so glad I stayed with Directv; I despise AT&T with every breath in my body.. You can guess that even though there is no 'official' deal on the table, good ole' FCC Chairman Kevin Martin already has his finger on the YES button  -- We're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat !! |

The only way that you will ever see 'lower TV prices' is in a bulk per channel cost. (i.e. 1000 channels for $80) vs. 13 channels for #13, similar to Comcast Rick's cost method of HSI. I'd like to see a lower bottom like cost. -- Canada = Hollywood North |

Lower prices? Comeon, you have SO much higher quality programming than what used to be available. It's an *awesome* deal. :P |

Lower prices $10.00 a month for 200 channels of AT&T TV and $60.00 for the FCC (Martin) Authorized Charge for NETWORK Access.
In other words $70.00 cable bill.
But the cable is only $10.00 a month wow that's a good deal till you get the bill.
Thanks MR. MARTIN wiping hands of GREEN $$$$ ink.
opps did I say that? It's funny because he doesn't hide is Bias with the telco's or deny his prejudice towards Big Cable Industry.
Like Mr. Bush he doesn't worry about public opinion he just does what the thinks is right or does what they tell him to do. hah |
