Jul 24, 2009  •  Post A Comment

AT&T’s U-verse TV service added just under 250,000 subscribers in the second quarter, making it the 10th largest subscriber TV provider in the U.S. after the six biggest cable operators, DirecTV, Dish and Verizon’s Fios, Multichannel News reports.

In addition, AT&T added had a net increase in satellite subscribers in the quarter of 5,000 subs. That includes 100,000 new DirecTV subs under AT&T’s deal with that company as it’s video provider in areas not serviced by U-verse.

At the same time as its gain of DirecTV subs, Multichannel reports, AT&T likely shed 95,000 customers who had been with Dish under AT&T’s previous agreement.

  1. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

  2. Hello, nice article and wonderful and structured blog.
