I agree with Brendan, DISH Network really is the best for TV everywhere. I love my employee Sling adapter, I can watch live and recorded TV on my Android devices everywhere I have 3G coverage or WiFi. That says a lot when you have to be in your house to use Comcast's solution. If you would like to compare different providers to find the one best for you, go to www.besttvforme.com.

I work for DISH Network, and have been looking online today to see what people are saying about DISH Network vs. Comcast TV Everywhere. Don't see this as much of a competition. Unless you really want to access "on demand" features in the rooms of your house on your iPad, why would you have Comcast TV Everywhere. With DISH network, you can access both live TV and DVR recordings anywhere on your Android, Blackberry, iPad, iPhone or laptop. To me there is a clear winner here.

I know you guys are a TV site, so you're focusing more on the NBC part of this deal, that makes sense. But it seems like everyone else is too. Doesn't anyone seem to notice that Comcast just bought Universal Studios? Surely that's a big deal too, possibly more important. I have no idea what could change at Universal, or whether I care, but someone had to mention it.

How does it affect people that don't have Comcast as their cable provider? That is the question on my mind. I don't want them pulling anything that can affect me having their cable channels. I already lost MSNBC when I switched to Verizon.

Will we be charged extra if we watch more than 10 hours of NBC programming?

Comcast does not own NBC yet, maybe not for a year. There's a lot that has to happen first (regulatory approvals, etc.) before change of ownership takes place. For now, it's business as usual.

NBC, schmen-BC (ahem).

I want to know what will happen to Jack Donaghy on 30 Rock! He's a GE man! Will he have to switch to Comcast? Will he be ousted by a Comcast up-and-comer? Will Comcast consent to putting itself into the mix of 30 Rock's meta-parody?

Hey all, Scott from Comcast here. I'm the chief blogger at Comcast and thought I would pop in to answer a couple questions.

1. We have no plans to sell NBC. We are proud of both NBC and Telemundo are are committed to providing free, over-the-air television.

2. Hulu will continue to be managed and offered to consumers just as it is. There were some questions about this on an investor call this morning, and ZDNet has a good quote at the bottom of this article: http://blogs.zdnet.com/BTL/?p=28012&tag=content;wrapper
Here's the quote:

Later in the conference call there was an interesting exchange about TV Everywhere and Hulu. %u201CRight now NBCU is distributing its free broadcast content on Hulu, but has been careful about putting cable content out there,%u201D said Burke, who added that the move made sense. %u201CCable content would go out to TV Everywhere. Hulu and TV Everywhere are ... More do are are committed to providing free, over-the-air television.

Poor NBC. I had Comcast cable and internet. I soon switched to Direct TV, but had no choice for high speed. It was out more than it worked, and not just for me. It was out once for seventeen days. I called and I called. The first guy who came out was just stupid. He changed a wire that wasn't attached to anything, and he kicked my cat. I threw him out. The next guy told me how crappy Comcast service was. Uh huh. When it was finally 'fixed,' they told me it was MY fault for calling so much. Luckily, I moved, and now have Brighthouse. They actually know what they are doing. So far.

You make it sound as if the SEC, FCC, etc. have already signed off on this deal. They have not, and if we're lucky, they won't.

Currently on Comcast the NBC/Universal channels have terrible reception compared to all others. I can only assume that this has been a sort of blackmail on the part of Comcast to force NBC to sell. This suggests that after the sale, we will get great NBC/Universal reception and everyone else will be shorted on bandwidth. This kind of shenanigan is the reason cable companies and content providers should have a solid firewall between them.
