If the current trend continues, there will be substantial decline in the number of television viewers in the coming few years. However, it does not mean there won’t be any decline in the number of audience for popular programs. The change will only happen with the devices being used to watch the shows. By venturing into the web-based digital media, Dish hopes to attract all those customers who switch from legacy pay-TV connections to modern options like video streaming services.

As part of initiative, Dish would create an effective portfolio of spectrum. It would be using a portfolio of 80 MHz of radio frequencies that consists of a variety of bands. The company is planning to use these bands to deploy 4G LTE wireless network in about 100 cities in U.S. markets. The experts in the US television industry say that Dish’s wireless spectrum has an estimated value of $50 billion. The company is currently ranked second by Zacks Consensus EPS.
