Newton, NJ | DISH a casualty of my problematic dsl connection I just switched from DISH to cable, not because of any problems with prices or service, but because of connection quality problems with my dsl. I got a much better cable broadband connection with better speeds, and adding the cable TV to it saves me even more money, about $40 a month ($80 a month during the 2008 promo)
I liked DISH, it just made more sense to switch to cable tv with my broadband connection... | |

Middletown, NY | I think it could be a couple of things... No matter who you pick as a source, unless you are a big sports fan the channel programming sucks. Most channels use a formula that seems to have one or two blockbuster shows, order 10 to 12 episodes of those shows, when new run the episode two or three times every week, wrap reruns of everything else around it repeated multiple times in the same week, take the same reruns and wrap them around other channels you own but at different times of the day, etc. I don't know who is selling shows to Discovery and the like, but each show repeats so much of itself in a single episode that it put me to sleep. Satellite is being used by alot of telco's as part of their response to cable triple play. Subs dump the package after a year because they can't or won't pay the full price. Stir in the price of fuel, credit crunch, and out comes the results. Does anyone with half a brain watch the home shopping channels ? I've lost count of how many are on DirecTV.. has to be over qty 20 | |
