Satellite TV Or Cable |

We had never used satellite services. Therefore, I didn't know
if it worked? I decided to do research and find out the truth
for myself which I will share with you here. The following quote
is indicative of what I found: A recent JD Power study recently
rated DIRECTV® and Dish Network higher in customer satisfaction
than all major cable companies. Either DIRECTV® or Dish Network
has been awarded the top service honors for past 5 years. This
report also stated that the satellite providers provide true
digital signals. Most cable companies offer analog and digital
signals. My old provider charged additionally for what they
called the digital tier which excluded all the channels for the
major networks. No wonder the local news sometimes had waves
across the screen. Furthermore, this report stated that the
satellite providers had mastered HDTV technology and the cable
companies had not achieved this important standard.
My cable bill had gone from $39.95 a month to over $150. I
cancelled and went back to rabbit ears. This lasted about a
week. At this point I had basically made up my mind. But how
much was it going to cost? Will I have to buy equipment? Well,
the answer was I didn't have to buy equipment and I now get
better reception for a fraction of the cost. Also, the satellite
companies offered more features which we could afford. Now we
have switched and we love it.
When you place an order online, some allow customers to design
systems matched to their home. You will also schedule the time a
professional installed will come to your home. The system will
either be shipped to you before the installation date or the
installer will bring it along. It is that easy. All you have to
do is be home for the installation.
The only downside to this happy ending is the whole family now
wants a new High Definition television so they can get the
maximum picture quality available from a true digital signal.
