Anbody else give up reading after the first line?

Local channels are over-the-air channels that are aimed at a specific market or city (NY, LA, Chicago, Denver, etc...) WTBS is local and available to the Atlanta, GA market. TBS is a Superstation that is available everywhere, which makes it national. RSNs are considered regional because...

You can keep your address the same as it ever was. You will be able to keep any standard definition channel that you had before except for the local channels, unless you are close enough to the Detroit market. Assuming you are too far away for local channels you can still get FSN Detroit if...

That's why the leagues go exclusive....to suck all the money out of the consumer as they can. That's exactly why the Sunday Ticket costs near 300 bucks....400 if you include the Superfan for HD....and the NFL only plays up to 14 games a week that are available on ST. It would be interesting to...

Both companies' prices were about the same for what I was looking for until I started adding in fees, charges, and other stuff. Dish then became like 15 or 20 bucks more....mostly because I don't have a phone line.

DEFINITELY take a look at any fees they can charge you for. As far as I remember, DTV has fewer and lower fees on non-obvious stuff (cancellation, late, programming changes, etc...) That is a good part why I chose DTV over DISH. Each website does have the fees listed somewhere so they are...

Yeah...that's one of the BS fees I was referring to. So you could end up paying your $5 mirrorring fee PLUS another $5 no phone line fee. So get 4 receivers and you pay an extra 30 bucks in fees. Cable isn't even that bad.

EQUIPMENT: It seems as though Dish has a better setup for DVRs as they seem more realiable and have the ability to do two TVs independently where the DTV DVR can only do one. DTV is also having software issues with their first non-Tivo DVR unit, although results seem to vary. Right now I...

Well the only thing I paid up front was the deposit. If I remember right the first month and partial month's service was billed 10 days later. I used part of my tax return to finance the deposit so it wasn't that bad. It keeps my bill a little lower for almost two years thereafter. A person...

DirecTV doesn't require any upfront payment unless they deem it necessary for a deposit. I signed up with a 200.00 deposit required. They will give it back to me at the score of 10 bucks a month for 20 months as long as I keep the account in good standing. When I found out about that it...
