Default Direct TV vs Dish Network vs Cable....???
Direct TV vs Dish Network vs Cable....???

I am on analog cable thru Comcast in Denver, have a great picture on 5 TV's (incuding a Plasma) Show Time , HBO, Cinemax
at $45 (In Englewood Colorado)

Comcast says I MUST change to Digital Cable by Jan 6, '04.

THREE MONTH FREE!!! (then VERY expensive)

Would I be better off changing to The Dish Network???

or

Would I be better off changing to Direct TV?

Opinions?

Where can I get comparisons?

Thanks!

Default Serious? Damn that sucks, wonder when they'll do that around here.
I'd say go for DirecTV, but I don't have it myself. But friends who do, love it.

Default DirecTV is fine until your poorly installed dish stops getting signal.
Then they make you pay for a tech to come out (if you can't access the dish yourself) b/c officially you own the equipment.

Sounds like you're speaking from experience.

Default DISH is great, technically. Just don't call Customer Service.
Even then still not as bad as cable customer service.
