RE: Directv is fine if you never need technical hope.

DTV has been twice in the last year or 2.
Once for a bad cable, and a different one than I had thought, and for a problem with the Genie Box turning itself off.
The technicians were knowledgeable and got the job done.
Additionally, last time they reset my Resolution Prefs to get 1080i on every station.
I had fooled around with them, and didn't know how to set it.
Way better when he got done with it.
New HDMI cable from DH Labs didn't hurt either!
It's not cheap, but I'm very happy with DTV/Genie.
I also have Coax out to Mac D 150 Dac for TV sound, excellent.
And, NO hum.
