Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

However if you were to take ALL the sales of FTA boxes from ALL the manufacturers and added to that total ALL the accessories such as dishes, LNBs, etc. the TOTAL $ amount would still be pretty much CHUMP CHANGE compared to the NET combined income of DN and BELL.

Your comparing millions to BILLIONS and I'd say that DN and BELL are probably losing on the average about $700 to $800 per year per user of these boxes. Doesn't make sense to go for a $100 or $200 one time sale in order to lose three or four or more times that amount over the course of a year.
