New Direct TV Ad

[bkushner]

Anyone catch the new add announcing 100 channels of HD and I believe they say "Blowing Dish Network Out of the Water".

I love competition, as much as I hate Directv it's good.

 

[SarKen]

It is a great ad. D* big satellite pushing all the little birds out of the way.

 

[richiephx]

Something tells me, it's just a matter of time until E* makes a move and somehow they will find a marketing comeback that will bite D* in the arse. It will be interesting when the BS starts flying.

i think this competition might be good

"Dishnetwork, we have Voom and you don't Directv, neener neener neener"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[FlyingJ]

More like "Dishnetwork, we have Voom and ummm, well, nobody else wants it.

Right now Charlie's more concerned about his check from AT&T than bringing his soon to be ex-customers more HD...............

"The HD leader with 75 channels" saw that last night too.

I think they bought all the ads in today's USA Today, some 2 page spreads, some full page, some 1/2 page ads; some in color, some in B&W. Too many to count.

I must say, the channel lineup is impressive.

So, is there a list of the 75 "channels" that Dish says they have? Last I heard they hadn't reached 50 yet.

Speak for yourself! I wonder what the Directv fanboys would be saying if Directv had Voom exclusively.

Well, I hope those D* subscribers are enjoying the NHL Network in HD??? Opps, they don't get that channel do they??? Do they get any of the NHL CI games in HD??

If this advertising blitz and poung D* is doing on E* doesnt get E* moving, nothing will. I think if we dont see some big movement, than the AT&T talks are definitely holding everything up.

A satellite blowing Dish Network "out of the water"? Shouldn't it have said "out of the sky"? I also don't think you are allowed to bump other sats out of their orbits.

To the contrary, if Dish wants to get the $65.00 per share from AT&T, they can't let the street value fall. They will be doing something to counter soon. Think what you will about Charlie, he's too good of a bottom line business man.

Yeah, only incoming meteors are allowed to do that.

 

[richiephx]

Same argument, different day, different thread. I wish the self-proclaimed elitists who continue to say the same thing would be more original in their thoughts and comments. If we have to continue to plow through the same garbage in every thread at least say something new for a change.

You didn't know that Charlie uses a new type of math?

It's the same "new type of math" that the "other" sat company is using.
