Dish México, S. de R. L. de C.V. operates a subscription satellite television service in Mexico.[1] It is owned by MVS Comunicaciones (51%) and Dish Network (49%).
History
On 1 December 2008, Dish México began to operate in Mexico, after an agreement between
Nat Geo, and Nat Geo Wild
. All of Dish México's channels programming are dubbed or subtitled in Spanish or originally Spanish language.
Broadcast networks
Dish México could not transmit
TV Azteca network locals due to a dispute between Dish México and Televisa. The fight was produced when Televisa wanted to charge Dish México per subscriber for its feeds of free over-the-air Televisa network channels; including some restricted channel. Dish México decided to distribute an HD receiver with a terrestrial antenna input which when connected to an over the air antenna picks up digital television
local stations signals free of charge.
On June 16, 2013, Dish announced that it would add the national free-to-air television channels, including Televisa (
Azteca Trece), due to the telecommunications reform enacted in June 2013, in which all satellite TV companies are forced to transmit television signals that have 50% coverage national territory or more.[2][3]
The broadcast of these channels was made official since September 11, 2013.
