DISH Network restructuring equipment fees

DISH Network customers will see a change in how they are billed for equipment in February, but whether that means a price increase seems to be largely on a case-by-case basis.

According to the Satellite Dish blog on Multichannel News, DISH Network will charge "$17 a month for a Duo DVR receiver, $14 a month for Duo receivers and Solo class receivers will be $7."  This appears to be the pricing for additional units after the first unit on the account.

While this may seem like an increase, it really amounts to a restructuring of fees.  They are reportedly going to a single DVR charge for all the DVRs in a home, and other fees are either being eliminated or rolled into the aforementioned per-unit charge.
