amazingandre Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Stop monopolizing the market and let multiple companies have it. It's extremely unfair to consumers who are forced to shell out big bucks every year for this, only to be limited on viewing options. I am ok paying 350 a year, but HATE that I am forced to keep Directv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if I lost Sunday ticket, I'd probably still drop it. So I disagree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetFancyMoses Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 (edited) If they go to solely a streaming platform, how are bars and restaurants going to be affected. To stream 4 or 5 games in HD at the same time they would have to have a 10G connection to their ISP. I'm assuming they'd still throw a bone to AT&T/Directv and let them have exclusive rights to business.

When you can watch similar or the same shows ad-free on multiple different streaming platforms for 10% of the cost, there isn't even a choice.

Latency mostly, plus satelite internet is sketchy at best. Hence why Elon Musk plans to drown the world in free satelite internet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXsteeler Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 In my experience, if my internet is out my DirecTV service is likely down, although DirecTV comes back quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
