I know its been a big deal here about the prices going up. I'm just wondering if any of you have Dish Network. They've raised prices again as most cable and satellite companys do. The only problem is they've raised their packages by as much as $10 a month. Some are $5 a month and some are $8 a month. I have DirecTV and they raised prices on each package by $3 and thats it. I'm not saying that by Dish buying SiriusXM they would raise the prices way up like that,but you have to look at their track record. If people hate the prices going up by $2 and the loss of online streaming now just wait. Dish has really raised their prices and they took a way a lot of HD channels that were included in the HD package(Voom Channels) and didn't lower the price of that package when they took them away. The grass might not be greener if they were to buy them out.
If companies are not turning a profit with the service or product they are selling they have to change something in order to do so. Dish Network if I'm not mistaken is a big value like Satellite Radio, especially when compared to some other packages like Digital Cable.
