Will Dish ever have a On demand service?I'd like to watch the Howard stern on demand channel. I listen to him on my siruis satellite radio every day very funnny. I also would like the WWE 24/7 wrestling channel.

Chris Freeland said:My prediction based on what I have read from several sources and I suspect is what Scott is referring to as well, is that both D* and E* will eventually go into the Wy-fi or Wy-Max business, possibly even jointly to share cost, to offer the same triple play (TV, Internet, VI-IP) deals that the cable companies and some phone company's are doing now. This will also have the added benefit of E* being able to also use the Wy-fi or Wy-Max infrastructure to deliver true VOD to the Ethernet ports of those VIP receivers. Am I too far off Scott?![]()
jeslevine said:Are you suggesting they will have VOD over IP?
Why can't they do that through the satellite directly?
