It will depend on your account status. What I paid 2 yrs ago and what you pay today will not be the same thing. You can contact one of the reps here, names in orange, and ask what your price will be, you don't have to commit to anything and at least you will know. I don't regret it at all, having one box with 16 tuners available means no more conflicts and it's definitely faster than the older Hopper with Sling.
