I currently work at DISH and being able to have first hand experience with our TV Everywhere capability is a phenomenon that has yet to reach its peak. It is amazing to me the advancements that we have made not just as DISH Network but as a part of the TV providers. DISH Network gives the ability not to just watch TV on the internet but on your phone as well. This is truly TV everywhere on your time and greatest thing is you are in control. -Joe
