Dish Network is a proven provider for over 14 million subscribers in the United States. These subscribers enjoy award-winning products and services at affordable prices. Dish Network was the first satellite TV provider in the US and has been providing these services for almost twenty years. They have helped to set industry standard with industry “firsts” bringing innovative advancements to the home entertainment industry.
Dish Network’s most recent accomplishment includes the creation of HD 1080p, a broadcasting format that has up to six times the resolution as standard formatting. HD 1080p has even more resolution than traditional HDTV, and brings a new level of image and sound clarity to any viewing experience. HD 1080p formatting has been compared to Blu Ray technology, with the theater-like benefits, all in the comfort of the home.
Dish Network also offers Interactive Television. This feature presents the customers with the convenience of online services right on their TV screen. The Interactive Television feature has a convenient bill pay option that lets customers set up payments with the remote, using a Visa or Mastercard. There are also Dish Network policies that can be viewed, customers can subscribe to paperless billing, or look at previous bills. Dish Network also offers a place to look up weather, horoscopes, news, or stock market information. Subscribers can also shop online or play family-friendly games with the kids. Dish Network Interactive Television is another example of great innovation, all offered to Dish Network subscribers at low monthly rates.
Dish Network was the first company to offer a DVR, or digital video recorder. The DVR helped customers with movie and programming storage and offered better recording options than the VCR. The DVR has almost completely taken the place of the VCR in most American homes, with better recording quality and less bulky equipment.
Other industry “firsts” include the award-winning MPEG-4 receiver that was originally designed by Dish Network. The MPEG-4 was the first video converter box to broadcast programming in the Advanced Video Coding Standard. Later, Dish Network was the first to offer the MPEG-4 as a multi-room DVR receiver, saving families time and money by providing them with one receiver that would work for two television sets.
When everyone was told to “make the switch” to digital TV, Dish Network was the first company to offer their customers converter boxes to go from digital to analog. Dish Network was also the first to offer their customers the converter box with a DVR, to help make the switch more affordable and convenient.
While other Pay TV providers offer international programming, Dish Network is the first to offer such an extensive international programming package. Their package includes over 170 channels, broadcast in 28 different languages. This includes programming from countries like Russia, South Asia, Africa, Greece, Israel, China, Italy, France, Japan, China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Germany, Portugal and Poland. This programming brings foreign residents familiar channels in familiar languages to offer everyone something.
Dish Network customers can continue to look for innovations and technological advancements that offer customers affordable, quality products and services.
