For any Dish subscribers- I have and HD reciever and DVR from 2 years ago- If I sign back up, can I use those rather than leasing new ones? Also, I went through and "build a system on their website." It came to $72 plus taxes and fees. If you dont mind- how much are taxes and fees with Dish? Thanks in advance.

It's not a compromise. It's what the BTN has been asking for all along.
Big Ten Network

Q: Will I have to pay more for the Big Ten Network?
A: We believe that if you live within the eight states of the Big Ten footprint, you should not have to pay any more to receive the network, which is why we are asking for the network to be carried on expanded basic cable. If you already get 50 to 60 channels as part of your basic cable/satellite package, we feel that the Big Ten Network should be part of that lineup. It's hard to imagine finding more than 50 channels more important to a viewer within the Big Ten community than the Big Ten Network.
Outside of the eight-state region, you may be required to subscribe to a digital level of service, which could include many other channels in addition to the Big Ten Network.
