Was the last and only reason I didn't kick them to the curb when ATT purchased them and totally [BLEEP] up a once great service. Guaranteed to drop them now.

Satellite is going the way of cable. I’m venturing there will be no satellite TV in 5 years. DTV already has a feature called Signal Saver which streams the feed if signal is lost to the dish. It’s not available for every channel but it’s only a matter of time before it is. Obviously they have the infrastructure in place to stream, so the next logical step is to eliminate the satellite side, which is hemorrhaging subscribers anyway. 

The big question is if they’ll keep the DirecTV moniker or call it AT&T TV. I would go with DTV because as you said, AT&T sucks. It would be a marketing disaster.
