DirecTV needs to have all the channels on that are on the Gemini Air and have them on the APP. I wonder if new customers would think if sign up and not choose the Air and go with the APP then see some of the channels they saw in their package aren't on the APP?

Too bad they can't do that for existing customers even the ones that still pay for the $23 ARS and the Whole Home DVR fee. One the other hand I wonder if it would end up costing existing customers more depending on how many receivers they had?

You forget about the new satellite they plan on launching.

Does the Air still have the HDR on/off?

Just curious if you can get the Gemini Air with Genre Packs? Also, would that combo also have the RSN fee?

Raise the price $10 and not add any more channels? Isn't that why they don't add the History channel because they have to take all the A&E channels, and they would have to raise the price adding those? Same with not adding METV, H&I and FETV?

Any news on any more channels coming to the DTV App like H&I? Thanks.

I saw this at DTV's Facebook page. I contacted that Android TV box site that shows the latest and upcoming TV provider boxes, and he thought it was probably an A.I. generated image. The remote doesn't have channel numbers. Also, the UI looks different and is in some language I don't know.

Yeh, not confusing at all. LOL.

This was the initial press release: DIRECTV is streamlining the brand to create a simpler and more seamless customer experience. In the current state today, DIRECTV’s products are divided by their method of delivery: DIRECTV is a Satellite product and DIRECTV STREAM is a Streaming product. As...

I forgot about Dish Network's satellite fleet. I know they have a new one being built and planned for launch. However, not sure how long it takes to build and launch one? Meanwhile, there is those two that that launched in 2010 the Echostar XIV and XV. I know that satellites last about 15...

It would be interesting to see what TPG does with DTV after they take full control of it in a year? How long would they keep it and make any improvements? Or would they sell it?

If you buy one, do you still have to pay the $7 a month after the first one being free?

I still watch live TV.

DTV makes you pay that or was the Solid Signal? I know the first Gemini Air fee is free then each additional one is $7 a month.

I wonder what made DTV think customers would want to pay those extra fees for the Gemini Air when the other Gemini Osprey didn't have any fees because you paid for it in full with DTV Stream? Unless when the Air breaks you get a new one for free because you are paying the extra fees?

I know you have said you think the normal prices for DTV via Net would probably be what the regular price for Satellite is. However, it will be interesting to see what they really are once the people that signed up for DTV via Net will really pay once the two-year price lock expires, and they...

What if DTV merged DTV via the Net and Stream, they would have the option of paying the ARF, RSN and Gemini Air fees after the first one being free per month? However, how many customers would opt to pay those fees to get the Gemini Air?

I was saying that about DTV because they don't advertise for satellite anymore. They promote being able to get DTV without a dish on the roof.

Why are they wasting money on this when even DTV sees streaming is the future?

I wonder if they will stick with this? "DIRECTV will advance our mission to aggregate, curate, and distribute content tailored to customers' interests by pursuing innovative products and providing customers with additional choice, flexibility, and control. We are well positioned for the future...

Would DTV still want to pick up Dish at fire sale?

Sorry, I should have said in the second sentence of my post, I guess AT&T thought they would make a profit with streaming when they bought DTV and then created DTV Stream and DTV via the Net.

- I agree I don't see how TPG will be able to make DTV via Net profitable. I guess they did when they bought it from AT&T?

How can Dish buy DirecTV when they are going bankrupt?
