    I don't disagree that they want special treatment but they also are absolutely correct in not giving in to SportsNetLA. The fact that so many Dodgers fans themselves haven't switched to TWC shows how ridiculous their claims are

    SEC game ratings in the past say yes Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk

    CBS continues with first choice rights every weekend starting the 3rd-4th week of the season The ratings say yes

    So, you hate paying for channels that you don't watch but want to force others to pay for a channel you know few (outside of PAC-12 fans/alumni) will watch? Never understood why so many are TIRED of this action....then want DirecTV to do it again because it benefits them Sent from my iPhone...
  5. DIRECTV Programming
    The problem I see is that (and this is just my outside view) is that SportsNet LA will think that by cutting their asking price in half...they are really giving in to the TV providers....when I don't see the value in this channel whatsoever outside of die hard Dodger fans. Granted, if TW...

    Maybe in the past but it looks like many TV Companies are somewhat rising up to fight these absurd RSN rates. Granted, DirecTV caved, IMO, to the Lakers but I can't imagine they continue signing up these 1 team channels at record rates Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk

    The pricing of the channel absolutely blows me away for a single team...nationwide appeal or not. I mean, a conference at least has 10-12 teams but $4-$5 per is a joke for the vast, vast amount of people in the country. I love my NFL team but I don't think I would even want to pay this amount...

    Which is ashame but should not be our problem as customers.....especially those not interested in that specific area or sport. DirecTV should not be paying such ridiculous feed anyway and to their credit fought back against CSN Houston and others. Thankfully, IMO, people have reached their...

    You may be waiting awhile as I see time warner wanting an absurd amount and most if not all tv providers will hold out until time Warner goes down significantly with their asking lroce

    Been about money for a long time now. I am as big a sports fan as there is but I have tried my best to avoid sports fees as of late

    However, a statement filed in federal bankruptcy court where the CSN Houston team is currently embroiled in an involuntary bankruptcy proceedings reveals just what the lawsuit is about. Seems the Astros are suing Drayton McLane for "causes of action for fraud as to McLane Champions, LLC and R...

    I did not intend to say that you personally would be biased ... nor anyone else. I was trying to denote a longstanding impression that "anything DirecTV does is right". As if DirecTV has never made a bad decision ever? (I also do not believe that one has to be a current or former subscriber to...
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Agree. Its based on Money not qualifications. And that can always put the company in danger when it goes through rough times. Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Why would a significant rival being bought bring lower costs to consumers? Does anyone here think that DirecTV would lower their prices and therefore not have the same amount of income brought in as previous years? I loved my years with DirecTV & will sign up with DirecTV in the future but...

    I am not sure why I would be bias for DirecTV when I don't even have DirecTV. I recently got FiOS.

    If 50 providers accept the deal is it really that bad? In today's day & age? Absolutely Sent from my iPhone using DBSTalk

    I hope they do merge and use the extra capacity to maybe offer local interest channels and ota sub channels. Maybe a local version of the weather channel for each dma? If they did merge, there is no doubt in my mind that we would see less choices at more expensive prices. Yeah! Sent from my...

    I love my NFL team like the next person. I also feel that the price is getting rather outrageous especially with the extra things necessary to use NFL Sunday ticket on a phone/tablet. I expect the price of Sunday ticket to continue being stagnant but I also think that the fees will continue to...

    As for netflix super HD. Good luck with that. Not everyone supports it. I stand by my statements. Netflix has taken several steps back and is in the lead largely because they were first. i stopped using Netflix a long time ago but I am interested to see how good super HD is to viewers...
