AT&T announced second quarter earnings with as little fanfare as possible last night. It was after 5pm on the East, and so a lot of news outlets (this one included) didn’t even pick the story up…
According to one of the shortest pressreleases ever… AT&T will webcast a presentation by Bill Smith, president, Technology Operations, AT&T Services, Inc., at the Wells Fargo 2016 Convergence & Connectivity Symposium in New York on…
Let’s face facts here. Live TV streaming isn’t ready for prime time, not quite yet. The only service that could even come close to replacing a cable subscription is DISH’s Sling TV, and let’s say, it’s…
