It starts 15 minutes after the start time listed in the guide. That's why you're not familiar with it.What's live TV?
But, how is that possible when so many people here keep repeating that Dish is the low-cost leader? Next, you're probably going to tell me that Apple devices aren't actually leading edge.You are right about that! If you are a customer with multiple receivers such as myself, and have the higher tier pacakge, Dish is now a LOT more each month than DirecTV.
Well, at least with the increasing fee's Dish can pay the lawyers to keep a feature active I dont use...
I'll tell you this, them fighting all the time with companies like Disney, CBS and Fox, all while saying they are trying to save us money, and then raising rcvr fees and trying to buy Sprint, is a BS story thats getting long in the tooth.
OK, let's compare a bit.
Get 4 Hoppers plus 1 Joey to match locations and have one less full time tuner available.
4 Hoppers @14 each = $56
1 Joey @7 = $7
Equipment fees $63
AEP @119.99
Total : $182.99
Direct's setup for you
4 HR24 @$6 = $24
Adv Rcvr @$25=$25
Equipment Fees : $49
Premier : $124.99
Total : $173.99
So about a $10/month difference at retail not counting any possible discounts. A fairly small difference imo, especially considering the superiority of the Hopper over the Genie.
So basically, for 1-3 TV households, Dish comes out slightly cheaper, and for 4 or more TVs, Direct comes out cheaper. Basically what I've seen all along with the two providers.
D*'s doesn't work that way and I thought their Protection Plan fee was going up??
