The battle between DirecTV and Viacom continues.  This is not good news for our TV lift customers who have DirecTV.  Viacom claims DirecTV won’t work with them to renew contract terms.  They claim that the renewal plans put forth our fair.  It is evident they wish to increase DirecTV’s fee structure.  Viacom states the fee increase is consistent to what their other distributors have to pay for Viacom Channels.  According to Nomura Analyst Michael Nathanson, he estimates that most distributors pay a fee of $3 per subscriber per month whereas DirecTV only paid $2.25 per subscriber per month up until last week.  Viacom wishes to increase their fee to what they claim is only “a couple of pennies per day per subscriber”.

However DirecTV states, when added up, this is a 30% fee increase.  They also state that Viacom’s renewal plans force them to add channels they don’t want. "Viacom insists that we carry the EPIX channel at an additional cost of more than half a billion dollars,"

It is a sad day for the DirecTV subscribers.  Today all their Viacom channels have been cancelled.  Viacom channels include VH1, MTV, Nickelodeon, and TV Land.  According to Viacom, DirecTV had until midnight last night to renew their contract.  Viacom claims the proposal DirecTV put forth was lower than the industry standard and not a fair deal.

DirecTV did not budge on their position and as of this morning all Viacom channels were dropped.  For our TV lift cabinet owners who happen to be one of the 20 million DirecTV subscribers, you may wish to contact DirecTV and voice your concern.  Currently, Viacom is urging subscribers to do just that in the hopes that this will force DirecTV back to the negotiation table.

For now though, it is at a stalemate.

While we have quite an impressive selection of small and large TV lift cabinets, every once in a while we have customers that wish for us to build custom.  Below is the latest custom project we worked on.

We had a lovely repeat customer from Maryland who contacted us in need of a foot of the bed TV lift cabinet.  While she liked the design of our smaller Carousel White TV lift cabinet, the width of the cabinet was too short for her vision.  She wanted a foot of the bed TV lift cabinet that’s width extended out to match her king size headboard.  The solution was to create the Carousel king foot of the bed TV lift cabinet.

This cabinet is already in our production pipeline and is scheduled to be released in near future. However, we tweaked the design slightly for this customer and raised the height of the cabinet.  The customer’s mattress was higher off the ground than most.  In order for her to have direct line of sight with electronics we raised the cabinet height so that
