never heard of "dish" but maybe its a us thing
DISH is a true technological giant. One of the biggest stocks (in terms of market cap) in the NASDAQ exchange.

This is amazing. Great way to win over some customers from Direct TV. If DISH can steals away enough customers from Direct TV, it may cause Direct TV and their parent company (AT&T) to decide to accept BTC as a payment method as well.
Really huge deal to begin with...but this could turn into the biggest thing to ever happen to bitcoin.

I think Dish accepting it kind of boosted up the price a little, well the Media coverage, at least. And they're going to start on July 1st, right?

If we look at the volume of transactions, it is clear that DISH is much bigger than any of the currently existing pro-Bitcoin retailers (including Overstock). But still, this news has not received as much coverage as it deserves from the mainstream media.

You know the media, sometimes they focus on it sometimes they skip things.
I'm sure we will see a lot of this type of news later when they catch up.
Believing in Bitcoins and it's ability to change the world

Hmm.. I was just comparing the media coverage on this announcement and comparing it to that when Zynga, Wordpress and Overstock made similar announcements on Bitcoin.
