[QUOTE="deepbluesky, post: 171483, member: 176074"] Well if we speak from Europe we should be aware of that the continent goes from Iceland down to Cyprus or from the Canaries to the Ural mountains in Russia. Depending on the interests and location even a 5m would not suffice for some stuff. Study the footprints and you'll see that we are far away from paneuropean coverage. Exceptions are for example the Eutelsat Widebeams. Those should be the standard. This would be my dream so that big dishes would be only for use if anybody is interested in special stuff like C-Band. I know this will never become true so we'll have to live with that what we can afford and have the space for. Others like me have to be without a dish and addicted either to here crappy cable or even worse terrestrial transmissions. Maybe someday IP transmissions will make it available to the lucky ones living in a broadband connection area in subscribing the content one wants to see without any dish and in best quality but most probably more expensive than it is today and maybe restricted depending on which isp-gateway the connection is made from.
