Round Rock, TX | Satellite is all digital and cheap. That is good if that is all you want. I've used Dish Network. But Satellite is not good for data and has no place for VOIP. It cannot even do double play well when both cableco and telco can (or will) provide tripple play services. |

I can actually see the near future without a Verizon. The company is poorly managed ,and losing the gravy business,POTS,at an alarming rate. Although there appears to be a rapid deployment of FIOS,at current rates it will take at least thirty years. With obsurdly low DSL deployment and Low ROR,The investors will be dissapearing like farts in the wind! I know you guys want lickity-split fiber broadband ,you'll probanly get it through MAN's (WIfi) first.

DirecTV looks like SH*T. The worst, horrible compressed piece of crap.
In some cases it looks inferior to the worst quality TWCNYC channels.
Dish looks better but I really miss my old Voom service - looked waaay better than anything else out there. |

I've used DishNetwork for 2 years before I moved to TimeWarner cable (Austin, TX) and used their Digital Cable. DishNetwork digital TV was much better. Apparently, it is not about technology, it is what the service provider choose to do. It looks like DirectTV is cramming a few more programs on the available bandwidth...
Dish looks better but I really miss my old Voom service - looked waaay better than anything else out there. Alas, they did not get the business model right to make it profitable. Technical supriority does not always translate to successful product. Market timing is important as well. |
