I might not win in life gloriously, might as well lose amazingly
From a different article:
But DirecTV claims it “will benefit US video consumers by creating a more robust competitive force in a video industry dominated by streaming services owned by large tech companies and programmers.”
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
From another article:
In a statement, DirecTV chief executive Bill Morrow said a merger between the two companies “will be better able to work with programmers to realize our vision for the future of TV, which is to aggregate, curate, and distribute content tailored to customers’ interests, and to be better positioned to realize operating efficiencies while creating value for customers through additional investment.”
Corpo-speak 101: how to use a lot of words to say absolutely nothing.
We need to consolidate so there will be more competition you see!
I’d buy that for a dollar!
Now satellite TV will become even more unaffordable.
Agreed. Competition is gone. This is also a sign that there will be very little investment or improvement in the industry, so it now exists primarily to extract wealth from the most desperate folks, until it all crumbles and the golden parachutes are deployed.
The sad part is if cable was cheaper, I’d have it. Unfortunately the value isn’t there. The Sell point at the beginning was less ads then tv Because it’s a paid service. Now it has more ads then regular tv.
Cable companies are paying the price for corporate greed. If they had a legitimate business model with great service when they had a monopoly on the service, they would be killing it. Cable should always have come with on demand. Instead they made us pay for it in addition to the $200 cost.
We have dish at out retirement community.
It’s dogshit. Techs tell me their software has been taking a shit lately (even more than usual)
Curious how this will impact the situation here.
Honestly thought that was a typo
Ya got ripped off
