I'm also switching to DTN Real-time from BMI cable, provided I can receive
satellite on my roof.   (I also complained to DTN customer support and sales
about not having Advance/Decline by exchange.)

Comparing prices paid monthly: BMI cable at 38.4K BPS is $294 per month,
without exchange fees.   DTN's satellite at 230K BPS or 460K BPS is $118 per
month, also without exchange fees.   Someone posted DTN's monthly fee would
be increasing to $138 in July, still less than 1/2 the price of BMI cable's
monthly subscription.

BTW If you have restrictions about no data satellites where you live, I
noticed a satellite dish cover maker has a product called the "Special
Umbrella Dish Cover" that hides the satellite quite well as a patio table
and umbrella.   The web link is:  http://www.clearsat.com/product.htm
