Dish can give it away to clients who complain on one condition...

IF THE CABLE PAYS FOR IT!

Brighthouse Networks did exactly that during a dispute with the local sports channel (Sunshine Network) in Florida.

Zzzt! Wrong!

Whoopee. Cable notoriously screws their customers anyway. Cable rates have gone up faster in the same time period as satellite TV rates have. In the 7 years I've been a DISH Network customer, my bill has probably gone up $3.00 in total, and some cable companies have raised their rates 40% or more over the same 7 year period. Technically, cable customers aren't getting ANYTHING for free, especially with the way the rates have gone up.
