With Dish and Overstock help, the adoption of bitcoins will spread among the bigger merchants, great news for us.

This might push directv and other providers to jump in as well. The beat rolls on.  Grin

I'm seeing a pattern, the underdog of the industry, trying new ways to attract customers, while the top dog is resisting change.

This is awesome! Great news for the Bitcoin economy. Now we just need people to pay Dish with it to make it worth their while.

Bitcoin used to be accepted by nobody. Then Bitcoin was accepted by a few individuals. That inspired some Mom and Pop-type shops to get on board. Which made a few "Tier 3" companies - small companies here and there - to start. Then some "Tier 2" companies saw that they could get in the game.

I do not see a problem here. No "Tier 1" company was likely to jump on after seeing a 10kBTC transaction for 2 pizzas or verifying that yes, one could buy Alpaca wool socks a few years ago. Each tier wants to see the one before it show that it was a smart move for them to do so.

In the meantime, consider taking another look at TigerDirect, Overstock, and other "Tier 2" retailers who are literally doing everything you could want but are not "hot enough" for you because they are right there, right now, accepting Bitcoin.
