Charles/David,

If you don't mind, I would like your thoughts on why USSB is a good stock to own. I like the idea of a satellite play, but my experience says this is a fast growing mkt but not ridiculous like the metworking stocks experienced in the early 90's. My company produces silicon for nearly all of the dish manufacturers and they are bullish but are not thinking about a dish in every house immediately anymore. Am I correct in that USSB is only as good as its subscriber base? I recently curtailed my USSB subscription from $30 per month to $10. I just did not need all those movie channels and DirecTV offered better ones on PPV when I wanted them, which seems to be the wave of the future. If you have any insight in to the expense structure as well that would be great. Seems to be kinda of a fat company, almost like a biotech. Thanks in advance for your thoughts, as I also pursue my own DD.
