Satellite Radio Makes Sense. By Carl Walker

Like cable television, Satellite radio is fast becoming a new genre of and unto itself. While not having to endure the same regulations as applied by the FCC in regards to free radio, the broadcasters of satellite radio, like cable television, have more options available to them and are able to offer a wider variety of programming as a direct result.

Satellite radio is the cable television of the radio broadcasting world. People can buy a satellite radio subscription in much the same manner that they would subscribe to cable television. The subscription includes various types of radio broadcasting not otherwise available to the listener. These usually include more adult-oriented radio broadcasting since the FCC does not regulate the industry in the same manner that they do for the free radio airwaves.

Since people are paying for the privilege of listening, and satellite radio is a buyer’s market, the wide selection of broadcast media that is available are regulated mostly by what the listeners want and what they are willing to pay for. While satellite radio may not be a viable alternative for everyone, it does offer more listening opportunities for those people who are willing to pay for it. Satellite radio subscriptions vary in cost, but all things being equal, the subscription fees are not at all unattractive when the broad spectrum of radio programming is compared to what limited choices are available without satellite radio.

There are also still some limitations in the availability of satellite radio. While these areas are in steady decline as satellite radio listeners increase in numbers, there are still voids in the market where it is not yet financially feasible to install satellite radio options. It is best to check for the availability of satellite radio before purchasing any satellite ready receivers.

Satellite radio receivers vary in all manner of shape, style and output range and are available to fit the needs of most any satellite radio listener. Deciding which one is best for any given use will require the purchaser to do a little research into satellite radio and what local options are available, then adjusted according to the personal preferences of the listener.

While the advent of Satellite radio technology is seen as a new path to freedom for some and a road to decline for others, the satellite radio of today looks like it is here to stay. If satellite radio is available in your area, it can be a worthy investment. Satellite radio really does offer many options not available to the regular radio listener.

Satellite TV Providers: Now Giving You A Wide Range of Programming Possibilities. By Tim Gorman

Satellite TV became available to homes in the United States in the early 1980s. Back then, consumer-owned satellite dishes were about 12 feet in diameter. Nowadays, though, satellite dishes are much smaller.

There were many satellite TV providers but Dish Network and DirecTV are the two main satellite TV providers today. Another satellite TV provider is Sky Angel, although it offers Christian and family-friendly programming. Sky Angel and Dish Network have an agreement that their customers can view each other's programs using the same equipment.

Dish Network

Dish Network has been providing satellite TV programming since the 1980s. The company is owned by Echostar, a company based in Colorado. In 2003, Dish Network's subscriber base in the United States reached five million households. That same year, Dish Networked partnered with SBC Communications and they began offering SBC Dish Network television service. In 2005, Dish Network bought Voom's satellite and the company added the Voom programming to its satellite TV offering.

In 2005, Dish Network launched its most impressive product to date, PocketDish. With PocketDish, subscribers can view and save anything that was recorded on the Dish Network DVR. Subscribers can download programs or movies onto their PocketDish, take it over to the house of a friend who doesn't have satellite TV and watch the shows from there. Subscribers simply need to hook the PocketDish to a television and that's it...they can now watch satellite TV on a different television.

DirecTV

DirectTV, Dish Network's rival in the satellite TV service industry, reportedly has 15 million subscribers in the United States and 1.5 million subscribers in Latin America. Hughes Electronics introduced DirecTV's first satellite in 1994. Nine years later, in 2003, Hughes Electronics sold DirecTV to News Corporation.

DirecTV is the leading satellite provider in the United States. Like Dish Network, DirecTV offers high-definition satellite service to its subscribers. The company also offers the digital video recorder (DVR) set-top box.

Satellite TV offers a wide variety of programming at your fingertips. Talk to representatives of satellite TV providers and inquire about the service they offer.
