Dish is expected to roll out a new Internet-based TV subscription service this summer, reports Bloomberg.
The offering would allow people across the U.S. to sign up for a linear TV service that’s delivered online rather than through a satellite dish. If the report is true, the long-rumored Internet TV service would make sense considering the deal Dish made earlier this year to stream all Disney-owned TV stations such as ABC, ESPN, and DisneyXD.

Some of those include NBCUniversal, CBS, A&E, and Turner Broadcasting. The service is said to cost between $20 and $30 per month and will compete with streaming providers like Netflix and Hulu.
