The only way this'll effect my family (who i no longer live with anyway) is that their package deal between DirecTV and their Verizon home phone/DSL will probably go bye-bye (or not, given regional monopolies, its not like my parents could choose AT&T for home phone or DSL ever).

The only loss of competition is in areas lucky enough to be wired for AT&T's fiber-optics network, Uverse, since Uverse TV could compete with DirecTV. Anywhere not wired for Uverse is basically not effected competitively.
