Practical satellite TV is relatively new and two satellite TV companies are already dominating this exploding segment of the TV industry. The development of direct broadcast satellite (DBS) television in the early 1990s and the commercial application of this technology a few years later has been a terrific boon for TV viewers. In the space of less than a decade, two satellite TV companies have come to the forefront of dozens that have attempted to enter this market. Those two satellite TV companies are the Dish Network and DirecTV. Both companies now provide DBS TV to more than 10 million subscribing households each. Both are continuing to grow and both companies have become very profitable, ensuring their future ability to provide this service. It is one thing to provide the service and quite another to do it well. These two satellite TV companies are both ranked at the top of the industry by J.D. Power and Associates. While they may trade spots from year to year, they have been ranked numbers one and two as the top providers of TV programming for the past several years. For example, Dish Network is the number one ranked company for 2004 and DirecTV is number two in customer satisfaction. Nearly a quarter of all American households now enjoy the quality and tremendous variety of programming offered by satellite TV. These two satellite television services provide programming to more than 20 million subscribers out of that number. This is a remarkable achievement in a very short time.
