I have used Directv for a long time (about 70 a month), along with Road Runner (45 a month), and Packet8 (23 a month) , for a total cost of 138, I got a flyer in the mail from Time Warner the other day, to get dish users to switch, for 99.95 a month, you get digital cable, with a DVR, a second box, one premium channel, Road Runner and digital phone. And the price is guaranteed for 18 months. I could not pass that one up!!!!!
