 I guess big dish owners could always convert to digital... though I'd wonder
 if it would be just cheaper to buy the small dishes.  I've owned a bid dish
 for a few years now and my only bitch to date is trying to record two
 programs on different satellites without having to buy a pricey receiver.
 (4DTV is a *little* too pricey for my taste).
