  4. 📺 Turns out even a $1 TV dinner costs too much these days! DirecTV backed out of buying Dish Network when that dollar store deal came with a $9.75B side of debt. Curiosity killed the deal when bondholders said "no thanks" to losing billions. Another plot twist in the great streaming wars! 🍽️ #TVMysteries #SatelliteTV

  7. I reduced my DirecTV package last night (saving us $100 a month!) but there's no good way to remove all the channels I no longer get from the guide. Selecting "Channels I get" included *700* channels on a package that "only" gets 140, which is just stupid. I had to go through by hand with an empty favorites list and add all the channels that we do get, checking the list on my computer. 😒

  9. #FCC bans #cableTV industry’s favorite trick for hiding full cost of service

  13. The US government has issued its first ever fine to a company for leaving space junk orbiting the Earth.

    "The Federal Communications Commission fined Dish Network $150,000 (£125,000) for failing to move an old satellite far enough away from others in use.

    "The company admitted liability over its EchoStar-7 satellite and agreed to a "compliance plan" with the FCC."

  17. Decided to finally remove the #Freesat #satelliteTV box and #bluray player, both being added to the "obsolete" AV equipment pile that I can't quite part with! Neither have been used for probably a year now.

    Sign of the times - TV is primarily on-demand, with the remaining bit of #Freeview streamed via #Emby which also handles Blu-rays, DVDs, and music. Saying that, I might think about an OTA aerial feed direct to the TV, just in case!
