Re: Dish Vs DTV
I've had both over the years. The main difference between the two is DTV has XM for music, Dish has Sirius.
DTV caters to the sports fan more than Dish. Dish is more notorious for cutting off channels when disputes arise between them and the provider. As for HD content, DTV has the edge there AFAIK. Pricewise, they are about the same withing a few dollars. I do like the fact that Dish has 2 room DVRs, I don't think DTV does. |

| Another few differences..
DirecTV offers field testing of software for their advanced receivers, which usually bring all the good stuff like DirecTV OnDemand (which uses a network connection)and soon Multi Room Viewing (also via networking).
Also DirecTV has media sharing with PC's AND will have PC Playback within the year for its HD DVR's.
Basically every cool feature D* has involves its HD DVR's. Networking is becoming a big part to bring some great new features, and idk if Dish has this, but DirecTV has a DVR Scheduler on their website and a mobile version for phones too. |
