DISH Network Launches DISHOnline.com

Starting Tuesday, DISH Network subscribers will be able to access their favorite shows in a whole new way with DISHOnline.com. The new video portal from DISH Network will allow users to stream programming from the web to their TV, computer, or mobile device. Plus, DISHOnline.com will also give users access to a wide range of other features, including online access to their DVR, as well as the option to stream new releases online.

The idea behind DISHOnline.com is simple: let DISH Network subscribers access the programming they pay for over the internet. In other words, DISHOnline.com allows users to sign in and watch the programming that they get with their pay TV service anywhere with an internet connection. Networks like MTV, HGTV, Discovery Channel, and plenty of other networks all offer some or all of their programs over DISHOnline.com.

In addition, DISHOnline.com will also serve as an online video store. With thousands of new releases available for rent at the touch of a button, you can stream movies to your TV, computer, or mobile device anywhere with an internet connection.

Finally, the really cool features of DISHOnline.com are for subscribers who have a DVR box that’s connected to the internet. As usual, you will be able to tell your DVR what to record over the internet, using a computer or a supported mobile device, such as an iPhone. Then, with DISHOnline.com, you can stream the content you recorded back to your home computer, laptop or mobile device. So, you’ll be able to watch your favorite programs when you want, and where you want, all at the touch of a button.

To take advantage of all the features of DISHOnline.com, call Sterling Satellite at 1-800-299-5610 and start your DISH Network subscription today!
