Your assumption is a majorly conservative one, too.

Most people are going to go for the Choice Xtra package (the cheap packages have horrible channel lineups) and when you start tacking on DVR, HD, and everything else, it's going to be around $60-65 a month and it will double at the end of the 2-year contract.

You're also making the assumption that the purchaser qualifies for Sunday Ticket deals. Depending on what CS rep you get and how persistent you are, long-time customers of DirecTV might end up paying alot more than $150 per year for Sunday Ticket.
