Did AMC win?

If ratings are indication, AMC may have won the battle between itself and Dish.

The satellite provider removed all networks provided by AMC including its premiere channel which among other series airs Breaking Bad.

Breaking Bad premiered its fifth season yesterday, Sunday July 15, to an audience of 2.9 million viewers.  This was the most-watched episode in the series' history.

The 2.9 million viewers was the Nielsen estimate based on traditional media on cable and Direct-TV.  There is no word yet on how many viewers watched the free live stream on AMC's website.
