Re: [DIRECTV] Why do I lease receivers instead of buying them?

even if you get a owned one you still pay 5 for mirroring and if you call direct tv some times you can get a free box with out having to pay.

No you don't.... if the box is free you are LEASING...Owning means likely you are paying $2-300 or more if HD up front for a DVR.

Have't looked at my bill recently, but DISH forced me to replace my OWNED 721 DVR (THE TIVO suit NONSENSE), with a 522 they gave me free, and last I checked were still not charging me a $5.mo fee.

Honestly the 522 seems more like a Tivo than the 721 but whatever.
