Re: [DISH] How about Dish Network HD vs. DirecTV?

I'm in the same boat as you. I've been with DirecTV for almost a decade. I am one of the suckers that paid for one of the older HD receivers. It's a damn shame that DirecTV won't offer their current subscribers newer HD receivers for free. I know some have managed to get freebies by calling retentions. But, old-timers shouldn't have to beg. DirecTV should just offer the deals to us.

So, I'm seriously looking into switching to Dish. It's a big plus that they offer more Greek channels.

Yep, I have DirecTV now but want to upgrade to HD. DTV packages are more expensive than Dish and plus they want $299 for the HD receiver upgrade.
really that much? dang i would have thought they would have sent you a regular reciever-H20/600 with a converter on it to get the HD channel,
wow thing are sure changing fast @ DTV,
