👌👌👀👀
@Jay
You are right again. It's eerie. I hope I spelled that word right 👍. It's like the merging of the first tech industry bubble crash. Just as you said. 😊
Switched from HughesNet. Night and day -- it's the equivalent of going from dialup to FTTH.
Dumped my local over-the-air internet provider for Starlink. Then I dumped DirecTV. My internet speed is now 25 times faster and I have the same services as before and my overall cost is 1/3rd LESS!
😅
The day I got Starlink , I got the opportunity to give Hughesnet the salute after 29 yr.....It was liberating.
Same AND Centurytel DSL. I had both. Starlink actually saved me money.
Looking forward to seeing Starlink's affect on the mobile industry, call, text & data via cell to satellite service. It will be a game changer for safety coverage everywhere. The cell companies won't like this but governments and the public will demand they offer it in a service package.
Omg this is hilarious glad i jumped on Starlink day one
It is going to be very difficult for the older generation that are used to Direct TV. I tried to get an elderly neighbor switched over to a streaming service with his Starlink internet. He wanted to go back to Dish because they had channels laid out mor like TV of the past and the programming was on a timeline that he was used to. The switch will be hard for the older generations.
They are call channel flippers. I have seen it were they will sit for hours flipping channels and never stop. By the way a 1 hour tv show has 20 min. of commercials so if you watch 3 cable 1 hr shows you watch 1 Hr of commercials.
In general true. However, I'm 68 and have had Starlink since 2021 with no problems. Even a "caveman" can set it up. Plus, in addition to the speed I like having the option of subscribing to different streamers or none at all. There's still plenty of no cost internet information and entertainment - advertising will always be a part of the internet.
Similar here, 71 Starlink for 3 years, gone is satellite TV in this house. @@JK-zw8ec
I'm 74 and got rid of cable, Dish and Direct years ago in favor of TH-camTV. It was easy. For those who think seniors can't do anything, I was using computers long before most of you weiner were born.
🎉😂
I had Direct TV from the early days. When BBCA started with Dr Who, I asked for BBCA and was told that Direct TV had all the channels possible. I canceled and went to Dish. Later I realized that I was watching about 4 or 5 channels for, at the time, $120 per month. I dropped that one.
Now I watch youtube, Pluto, and Tubi and pay only for fiber rural internet, not even $40 per month provided by a local Texas tele co-op.
Hi J, I’m in the UK and recently found your channel and love your content. I couldn’t agree with you more about being happy that the big major companies are finally getting a taste of their own medicine. I hope they all collapse and go bankrupt so they can feel what they’ve done to everyone over the years. I’ve been with Virgin media for over 10 years now , last month I bought a Starlink gen3/4 and cancelled my contract with Virgin media and couldn’t be happier. Thanks again 😊
I love my 3 Starlinks!
FCC wouldn't allow this years ago but now they will. Sounds like a way to let one go bankrupt.
It would be nice Starlink would go from $120 to $99.99. Still way better than Hughes net. I do have back up internet from att 5g tower since it's a half a mile from the house. Starlink changed my life completely.
Try $165/mo for us truckers (and other nomads)...
With Starlink improving, these companies will be crashing. Starlink moved me to the Miami POP and now it is a Ping of 20, DL of 350 and UL of 33. I just wish they would change the updates back to 0200 instead of 1400.
Agree with the update time change for sure
Kicked Dish to the curb a couple months ago. Internet based solution with Starlink is way cheaper and better. Never looked back.
Likewise.
It's been 1 year now, since I got Starlink and fired Century Link/ Lumen. Starlink is simply awesome!
I'm no longer being financially raped paying for a service that would crap out often, once for over a moth. As well as, being obliged to pay for a land line that was just an encroachment for robo call molestation.
My homicidal ideations went away after I fired Century Link/ Lumen. No senior executives were made examples of and I sleep well now. There is now zen peace under my roof.
With Starlink, I can now function in this modern society once again and have total control.
Elon needs to start marketing his own tv. If people don't want internet, then the starlink could double as a satellite TV setup.
I agree
No he doesn’t. All anyone needs is internet access. All tv content is available via internet and apps already. Elon doesn’t need to spread himself out any thinner than it already is. If you are thinking of a one stop location to go to for TV, then X can easily add that feature with subscription based entertainment. 👍🏻
@@timkennedy8665 maybe ur right. I would like to see him get a piece of that pie somehow.
There I live in the netherlands I cant really comment on that !!!
I have had DIRECTV for over 25 years. I have Starlink but I’m terrified to drop DIRECTV. I need my local stations. I don’t know enough about other options yet. Therefore, I’m hanging on.
I have TH-cam TV and get local stations for here in Florida. You might want to check.
Quite a story this with Direct TV buying Dish Network. The Island of Saint Barthélemy, which caters for many American clients, has access to Dish Network. I don’t know how it is done but I doubt if it is legal as this is a French Island!!!. It sure is expensive!!! We have just installed Starlink at our Villa here and I’d love to dump Dish! Obviously as you say streaming is now the thing and I have no idea if we can get streaming. Would that problem be solved with a VPN? Does a VPN have to be on an individual’s computer? Your advice would be very helpful.
Some router will allow you to install a VPN in them, if not, each computer would need a copy of the VPN software.
I would love to have Starlink but I can’t afford the &120/month. 😢 I have T-Mobile Home internet and I have to reboot the thing 1-3 times a day. It’s not good for rural areas. I’m about 16 miles from the tower. I asked my landlord if I could put a 30’ tower with a Wayform antenna on it, he said no. I’m going to go watch your Starlink videos. Love your channel JC. Thank you.
T-Mobil Home Internet is really good.
Thanks @jcristina. I live in the urban sprawl of So Cal so thankfully, I get to have cable. That said, I don't necessarily trust that my cable provider won't shut down if election issues go off the rails. It wouldn't be the first time that a technology company would smother dissemination of critical information in a crisis. Elon appears to be the more trustworthy on free speech. BTW, I can't believe I'm still on the Adobe plantation. Are your software tools still the same after you cut the Adobe chord?
Still the same app. Never went back to Adobe. 5 years now I believe.
You are 100% correct and I heard now Att is looking to dump Direct TV. End of a era of pillaging us the consumer and ATT is taking a hit too with direct to sat phone. So long ATT thanks for the grape.
I love it all.
Had direct tv back when,ATT brought it approx six months later got rid of direct because of very poor customer service. Then I went with Dish got rid of it last year as soon as my Starlink came, it’s great , screaming I get the same local channel and have a workable menu to record shows like we did before streaming love it!!,
👍🏻👍🏻
This is a long time coming, I’m sure you saw the writing on the wall over a decade ago.
Quite a few years back it became clear that streaming and internet TV/phone was the future.
My first realization of this fact was in 2002. I had a customer that had cancelled their standard home phone service for cellular only- this was rare back then. It’s not exactly the same thing as what you’re discussing, but at the time it made it very clear to me. There was a tech disrupter in the telecommunications markets. In 2013 I cut my land based television account. Right now I know very few people that still use cable TV. This is an ever evolving market.
The fact that people like you and me could see this trend occurring for years- and companies like ATT and Cox are so late to figure it out makes me wonder who’s in charge of these corporations.
Makes you wonder
Good News, I don’t have Starlink yet. We have Direct TV , she’s been upset about the Cost so they made a deal and signed up for a year more I wanted Starlink but I’ll have to wait until the end of the contract.
Sad. These contracts should be illegal.
I too, dumped Directv 2 months after I got Starlink... Thank you Elon!!
the simple channel guide I get from direct tv is the main reason I wont leave them. Local channels is also another huge reason. I live in an area where I cant get basic local channels. Yes I could get these over my starlink but trying to navigate different channels is a nightmare. I like the ease of surfing the directv channel guide. I also have several tv's in my house and starlink could not handle that bandwidth smoothly. I have no options for cable or fiber so Im left with limited choices and have no plans or future plans of dropping directv. The day some one comes up with a simple programable channel guide program with all the many different internet streaming services Is when I would consider dropping directv.
I have Starlink. I have 5 TV's my house, no problem. I had DirecTV for over 20 years and switched and in two weeks I could navigate to everything I wanted to see with no problem. Total cost is also cheaper. TH-cam has a simple channel guide and so to several other channel bundle providers. Spend a little time and effort and see whats there.
Inevitable ! Verizon took a hit when others offered a better price for reasonable performance. Competition - - I love it.
Yes!!
I actually had DIRECTV over 40 years ago. Paid $750 just for the equipment. I now have Starlink and it’s the best service I’ve ever had. Thank you, Elon.
Great information. With Starlink, I'm dropping dish in 6mos. at end of contract. Going with youtube tv.
I first had DirecTV when it was partnered with USSB (1996?). I switched over to Dish during the heyday of "testing". Once that ended, I realized that I wasn't watching much TV, and dropped satellite TV altogether.
Cable itself is dying. On-demand is eating it for lunch. At least the cable companies can provide data. Satellite TV can't.
AT&T ripped me off for years. Absolute trash company. Good riddance.
Just shows you what good healthy competition and innovation can do. Those now "legacy"' companies didn't innovate and barely competed. Now they've lost and are sinking. It just takes a long time for a big ship to sink. With Starlink and streaming, I can't even imagine going back to "Cable Channels" Yuck! 😫
I just luv to hear the fall of DirectTV & Dish. Thank you Elon Musk. If I recall seeing on this channel, by February 2025, Elon will have the system up to convert a typical cell phone, into a satellite phone. Go Elon.
Is that a Marine Corps shirt? If so, Simper Fi. 1967- 1972.

Get yourself some Throat Coat Tea from Traditional Medicinals and some Slippey Elm lozenges. That's the singer's secret.
What effect will this have on Canadian customers?
Consolidations affects the entire industry. Usually innovation and price.
In regard to the comment about the older generation. I’m there. I have DirecTV and fiber optic internet. I have no clue how to manage TV programs on fiber optic. And, I’m not happy with DirecTV. But I feel stuck in the rut.
Thanks for all the great videos!
What in the world is the strategy in a loser buying a loser! DirecTV, Dish, and AT&T do deserve each other. After being on DTV for years, I finally got Starlink a few months ago. Performance is excellent, and streaming my tv watching has not been hard to figure out.
I thought I wanted local channels but have found that as my political position has evolved, I find I don't watch any programming from the major networks. Also, pro sports and their spoiled athletes has made watching sports undesirable. Liberal bull crap has seeped into every facet of American life, even the United Methodist Church has gone LGBTQ+ and seems to be totally run by Liberals! (Go Global Methodist!)
I may be close to throwing my TV out in the yard!
Living in rural indian river county FL, I had no choice for over 12 years, to pay Hughes net $117.00 per month and Direct tv $258.00 per month. Dealing with atrociously slow speeds. Also had the added expenses of purchasing tablets and watches with LTE service through Verizon and several jet packs for running my business. Grateful for starlink. Game changer!! 🎉
Just got starlink standard residential and ditched Spectrum internet crap. Also got Starlink mini for our RV travels. Awesome! We ditched "cable" tv years ago and went to the fire stick. Starlink has been a game changer. So far loving it!
Dish Network purchased boost Mobile fairly recently. Boost has been advertising the largest 5G network for several months now. I wonder what is going to happen to boost now.
I'm a full time camper and I use Starlink. I left the old satellite providers years ago and I would read books exclusively before I would go back to them.
its all going to streaming. i have direct only for channel grouping.
🚀
I've run the gamut from everything you have mentioned, including local wireless internet for tv. Was being ripped off by everybody including the local company. Thank God for starlink. Installed starlink an immediately canceled everyone asap.😅
I enjoy dish. It’s simple and quick to find my programs, record and play. The guide is way more convenient. I have starlink for travel in our Rv, roam plan. I’ll miss dish if it goes away.
Got rid of my landline 10 years ago and have had Direct tv, Hughesnet, Dish and so on for about that long, but just got my Starlink so will get it setup and see how it is. I'm pretty back country, no cable buthave decent cell service so I'm using my hotspot now. Thanks for the update.😊
High inflation, high interest rates, and high debt all causing companies issues. Borrowing more debt to pay past debt with less money future innovation. Commercial loans are not 30 year fixed like mortgages but 2-3-5 year variable rates. These are starting to come due. Just like our government just paying interest on 35 trillion but no principle payment.
Hello JCristina!! This one here was a banger! I was waiting for someone to go in and talk about this merger between Dish and Directv. I and my wife have been a customer of Directv for years. I would disagree with you on saying that Satellite TV is dead. With this merger, Directv will now become the largest pay per TV provider in the country. There are pros and cons to cable/Satellite TV as there are with streaming. There are millions and millions of customers who still have and use cable!Satellite TV. As you stated, there are many rural customers that don't have access to internet. I don't know one person, friend, or family that have Elon's Sapce X Starlink. That is still new to most people. Directv does have some advantages with their hardware as in comparison to a streaming device like Roku or the Firestick. I can go on, but just wanted to chime in. This video was a good one and you point out many of the caviots with Dish and Directv, but Satellite TV is not going anywhere any time soon. Have a good one.❤
I agree with you 200%. I'm 77 and fairly savvy on all of this and still cling to Directv. I've had Starlink for over two years and love it but can't bring myself to drop DTV. None of the streaming services can offer the same experience I get with D and I still have the threat of data caps lurking in the back of my mind. Trying to migrate the little woman over to streaming would be damn near impossible. She does not accept change well.
@goodgr100 Lol!! I totally understand. It is my wife on why we have Directv for the most part also. I certainly agree that the whole experience with Directv is way better than with those streaming devices i.e. Roku and Firestick. All you mostly get with the streaming services and devices are tons of thumbnails and a little information. The Directv guide and experience is so much better with it's better graphical intuitive interface. Streaming is okay, but if your internet connection is not fast enough and reliable, so goes the experience. I love Directv.
6 years ago Direct TV wouldn't give me an account unless they ran my credit report ... BIG NOPE - next I settled for Centurylink DSL and it was and still IS horrible ... but when Starlink was available April 2022 I switched ... even with numerous Starlink issues etc since it has and still is the best choice I made ... BTW Joseph ... as always thanks for your WHY and great video content on Starlink 🤙
Truly appreciate you. Starlink has given us some redemption. .
I have 2 Starlink accounts, roaming and residential. I have kept Direct tv so far because my husband finds searching the vast choices of streaming puts him on overload.🤣😂 Direct tv is instant and streaming requires a bit of patience with a learning curve. I'm working on cutting ties to Direct. Thanks for all you do for all of us J
Ok so where is everybody finding all these streaming channels with all the content that's on directv??? I swear say the last 8 out of 10 times I've searched for whatever random movie / show I was interested in at the moment, on netflix, all I get is "We don't have that, but look at these choices" How many streaming services are you guys paying for??? And yes I have been a die hard directv subscriber since very nearly day one!
First of all I live in a rural area in Canada and love my Starlink I have not payed for Cable or Sat. for over 12 plus years. I started a company many years ago doing trade shows and Internet sales of Android TV Boxes that I program for all free TV and no monthly charges. Cable and Satilight TV is soon to be a thing of the past just like the 8 Track Tape. Having good internet and smart TV's and products like I sell is the future of Television.
I agree that Starlink played a role in cutting value of Satellite TV. That and the switch to streaming services also played a huge role. Then broadband fiber providers like ignite partnerships with local electric companies also had their role of pushing people away from Cable companies like Spectrum and XFinity. Starlink would directly be responsible more than anything else for Satellite data services like Hughes net and others due to the faster latency with Leo orbit versus Geo Orbit. While latency not a huge issue with browser internet it is definitely a huge issue for gaming like WOW and Call of Duty.
I dumped dish 10 years ago. I cut my entertainment cost by over 50%. I can get everything I want with out Dish.
They paid too much, it will probably sink them!
Musk was lucky starting all his companies when interest rates lowest in history. Rivian and other startups started later with more debt. All this inflation and high interest rates hurts small businesses and startups as with all businesses with high debt. Inflation is slowing meaning prices do not rise as fast. Prices will not decrease as governments want at least 2% inflation to keep money on the cheaper inflated side to pay creditors devalued money. 2019 gold $1200/ounce now $2600/ounce reflecting devalued dollar. Deflation would help consumers more as it would decrease prices and make the dollar more valuable. Buy more stuff with less dollars
You don’t watch news do you. Unless you have Directv that allows an hour buffer you are stuck watching enough commercials to call a suicide hotline.
Buggy whips forever! In other news, the future of technology is VHS.
I've had broadband data only for over 10 years now. I get all my entertainment over IP.
Wonder if they could use any of those sats for backhaul in areas where it would be hard to run fiber. You would think Starlink could make a fleet of sats to speed up the GEO to LEO. Just thinking out loud but in my pea brain I bet Starlink could figure out a way to make it work. It would be slower but in some areas it might soeed up their connection at the cost of latency. You could have control to go onky Starlink or combined. Maybe Elon will end up owning them in the end. 😂😂😂
Dish had a really good customer service from what I heard but their connectivity service was about the same. Now DTV will suck for all who has it. Starlink just blows them all out of the water.
The way of the dinosaurs. What industry is next?
Auto. Full automation.
7:15 tell me you dont understand networking without saying you don't
Left dish a few years ago when we got Starlink. Not one regret.
Likewise.
Dish will get trashed just like Directv did after AT&T took that over.
I have Starlink, I love it, but I still need Directv, is there another option to receive TV?
They paid too much, it will probably sink them!
Haven't used dish since getting starlink...I currently own a gen 1 on house and a mini in motorhome. Done and done!
We went to over the air antenna a couple of years ago. Yes, we are rural. I have found that I do not miss the 135 or so channels I can't get. Let's face it - most television and movies are garbage now. And it was getting to the point that you had to pay extra for "+" channels. We are happy and saving money at the same time.
What happens when Starlink puts DirectTV and the other satellite companies out of business? Won't they just raise their prices, then there is nothing you can do about it since there is no one left in the game for competition. That's how most of these large corporations work, take a loss for the first several years while building the user base, then raise the prices once everyone is hooked and there is little to no competition left.
I retired in the Dominican Republic a few years ago and had bad internet access until I came across starlink and doing my research stumbled on your channel and pulled the trigger. Best decision I made. I went from no internet for days at times to no down time for almost a year. Can't beat that .
Long overdue Concast NEXT
It was always just a matter of time for these companies once Star link became operational.
now Elon needs to buy direct tv along with dish. My house is in the country and I had a care taker living there. The both of them screwed my caretaker over.
Sad
It's a dying service...cord cutting will eventually hit 90% or more making DirecTV unsustainable. It would NOT be a smart purchase.
FCC wouldn't allow this years ago but now they will. Sounds like a way to let one go bankrupt.
Agree, my fixed wireless was woeful and they gouged me for years, thanks to Elon i too felt great giving them the middle one.
Thanks for the joyful news
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Again great content thanks 👍👍👍
Thank you!!!
I had 💩 dish network for 25 years. It felt great to show them that finger too.
Stormy weather, provided you are being literal here, is the best weather.
Get rid of all the other services then Starlink prices can just keep rising!
When is the starlink phone coming elon said it would be a challange
I guess he does not want to pay attention to it right now
Do you think he is going to make a privacy phone linked with starlink
What happened to my free month when I signed up with your promo code? 😡
I must agree, legacy companies that do not plan for the future are destined to fail.
Having issues with over the air tv stations
and we are paying cox cable out the wazoo
Just to get local stations still have not found a good solution
I thought directtv owned dish already
direct tv does have a streaming offer if you want to pay very high prices
Data rules except for local channels in rural areas where HD antenna won’t work and for older people who just want easy remote control to local channels
What’s there pricing now.
So if I already have fiber internet, do I really need Starlink?
I had a Dish in 1984 until I moved.
Good video! Starlink is awesome
I looked at starlink. I may grab it.
its been over 6 months since dropping dish
Starlink for the win👍📡👍📡👍📡🇺🇸
you sort of predicted this, the surprise is direct-tv
Great video thank you
How do I get Fox News without Dish?
My building prohibits dishes so i am stuck with Comcast. The fact that Elon offers an alternative in rural areas is awesome.I use an OTA antenna and have a VERY skinny bundle of channels(Philo). Cable is crashing as we speak so choice like Starlink is very attractive.
Do you have a balcony with a view you can hit the satellites? If so, by law they cannot stop you from putting up a dish. The ONLY thing they can do is prevent you from attaching it to their structure or doing any damage to the property. Tripod or non-damaging clamp on the railing and they cannot stop you. (IF YOU ARE IN THE USA)
💩 only because you tell me to put a poop emoji
Praying for Elon.
