DISH vs DirecTV Channel Comparison?

[Michael Graham]

Hi All,

Would anyone have a reputable DISH vs DirecTV channel comparison chart? Many of the ones I've found on the internet seem to be outdated.

Thank you in advance. I'm considering switching from DTV, but would like to compare the channel lineups first.

You just need to go to the respected websites and look up their packages.

They both have printable channel line ups.

AVS updates monthly it includes other services like Vue and cable also.

What's not Correct?
Just curious.

Its a crappy overall channel comparison for sure.
But I think its just showing HD channel offerings by provider.

thats all that is showing what HD channels are on each of the cable and satellite providers

thats all that is showing what HD channels are on each of the cable and satellite providers

But its still fairly accurate for which it was meant.

Its just not a Complete channel comparison , which is what the OP was asking for.
So for that its Not accurate.

But Its definitely accurate in Comparison to Offered HD channels.

Yes its mainly HD comparison, I automatically think everyone wants HD comparison. Curious what channels for Dish are left out.

Should this be a sticky in the war zone?

Certainly would be a Nice addition.

Someone definitely put a lot of work into that list.
I'm definitely keeping a copy of that link.

No.

Your major concern should be what channels that you watch are in the lowest price package for each carrier. So, look at the Dish packages at the link listed above and then find a DTV link for packages and see which minimum priced package fits your needs. Channels for Dish and DTV vary for each package. A must have channel on Dish might be in a lower priced package and yet DTV might have that must have channel in a higher priced package. Both are not the same.

I've done that - and it in general works. I'd like to be able to slice and dice via Excel.
