Dish Network is trying to please cord-cutters by tempting them to keep the cord.
The satellite TV company is offering a "skinny" version (http://about.dish.com/press-release/programming/finally-skinny-bundle-dont-watch-dont-pay-dishs-new-flex-pack) of its traditional TV package for about half the price of its current plans.*
The service is the new "Flex Pack skinny bundle," a plan advertised at $39.99 that comes with 50 channels and the option for one of eight themed channel packs. But subscribers can bring the new service down to $29 by forgoing any add-ons.*
That's compared to existing Dish service, which starts at $54.99 a month.
