Its not clear from the article what they're doing for internet access going forward. It sounds like the may actually be increasing the bandwidth, since they no longer have to deliver TV channels on the same line as the internet.
What really surprised me, though, was that DirecTV was actually growing. I thought there was a trend towards watching TV shows via the internet and away from traditional cable/satellite.

I thought there was a trend towards watching TV shows via the internet and away from traditional cable/satellite. DirecTV is probably largely cannibalizing other traditional cable/satellite (AT&T has been very heavily promoting it and offering big incentives since they purchased it); there's nothing inconsistent between DirecTV growing while the overall cable/satellite market is shrinking.
