In Reply to: Dish vs. Direct vs. Comcast -- Any recent experience? posted by clarkjohnsen on July 17, 2006 at 08:35:05:
DIRECTV is pathetic!They have gone so downhill in the last couple of years. They have gradually raised their rates. They have deleted truly interesting channels like "Trio" and "PBS-U" in favor of phony televangelists and ever-more shopping channels.
GET THIS: DIRECTV is so lame that they now offer (as a premium!!) a station that plays fall-asleep music for your infant!
My advise: Go with Echo or a good digital cable sysytem.
Follow Ups:
Murdoch bought Direct TV, probably hence the excessive televangelist and home shopping programming.
...and Direct is upgrading their system to MPEG-4 within weeks. The new HD-DVRs will be made by Samsung, a really good company (I think). Dish has dished me with dishonest sales practices and several outright lies.I'm right back where I started!

Yes, the direct TV box is a problem, however, the Monster HDMI cable is one of the worst HDMI cables in the market.
I had the ISF calibrate my Samung 56" DLP, We feed the HD generator test patterns thru the antenna input of the DIrecTV box, which feeds the TV via the HDMI inputs with a Monster 600 series HDMI cable.When the ISF tech (who happens to be a good friend was done) we checked all of the test patterns and colors with his analyzer..he had to tweak a couple of the color points, but it came out looking great
Correction: Make that Dish Network, not Echo. Sorry.
