AT&T will combine its 5.7 million U-verse TV customers with DirecTV's roughly 20.3 million US subscribers. All of a sudden you're talking about the number-two pay-TV provider in the country, says Dan Rayburn, an analyst with Frost & Sullivan.
Nonetheless, the number of Direct TV subscribers has grown from 16.8 million in 2007 to over 20 million in 2014, while the number of Dish customers remained more or less constant at around 14 million.

Dish Networkâs revenues have also shown growth during the same period: from almost 10 billion U.S. dollars in 2006 to over 14.5 billion in 2014.
