The new service also will provide differentiation from satellite providers DirecTV and Dish Network, as well as video services from the phone companies Verizon Communications and AT&T. The satellite providers cannot easily match the service because of bandwidth issues, while the telcos likely could match the offer, but haven't done so, so far.
