Cable or Direct TV?

[Farrah]

Which do you prefer? I can't stand Direct TV. It never works when it rains and I don't understand why we have to sign a contract to watch tv. Are they that insecure they have to lock us in like that?

I use Direct TV or satellite connection. Yes, I face problem sometimes when it is cloudy or raining outside bit Direct T.V. has an excellent quality if compared to cable T.V .

I don't care for Direct TV,
I bundle with Comcast and they aren't so bad. The internet is fast but it goes out for no reason for like 20 minutes every so often. I couldn't even tell you why

I don't know, have you tried Comcast lately? I was surprised too when I saw how great it looks now that they have gone digital.

I just watch my TV on my computer... why buy cable when everything's on the Internet?

 

[randee555]

I have dish network but I also subscribe to hulu plus. I'm not a fan of satellite so I only have a very small package. I only have it because certain shows I like aren't on hulu plus.

Neither. I'll just have cable tv thanks. I only watch TV for the news anyway and I can get that with an antenna.

If I really had to choose it would be Direct TV since it is cheaper in my area. I am more of a Netflix or Hulu type of guy.

 

[dannyboy]

I would chose cable but only because Direct Tv is worthless in the rain. Once it rains the entire picture is screwed up.

 

[msreebaybay]

I personally have cable so I would go with that.

 

[Dez97]

Direct tv cause its what I have now.

 

[FosterTXT]

I think I would much rather go with direct tv over cable. I have never had cable before, so I think I would just stick with what I already know. Besides, cable doesn't cost much less where I am from.

 

[burtpovski]

I'm currently using cable. I don't think I've tried Direct TV before, so I can't really judge that. But I'd say that cable is pretty good from my past experiences. Even now, I think that it's still good. There's still a lot of channels that you can watch, but some cost money to subscribe to. I usually subscribe to only a couple of stations because I don't have the time to watch everything on TV.

Satelite tv isn't very popular here and we mostly just use cable and I've never had any problems with it apart from a very few days of outages so I would just pick that over satellite. The only thing I would prefer about satellite or direct tv would be the many different channels I get.

neither, I prefer to just stream everything online. Cable is moving in that direction now anyway.

Niether, but if I had to pick one it would be Cable. Satellites, for the longest didn't have the internet and phone packages. I think they have the internet now but I'm not sure about the phone service.

 

[niiro17]

Neither, I have TV but I rarely use it, I only use it when I want to a watch some movies or play games. And also I have Internet, I'll just stream them online.

 

[cyberpinoy]

When we lived in the states we had Both plus netflix and some filipino cable box for my wife as well. How culd I possibly watch all those repetitive channels i could not but it was nice to have all of them available to us.

 

[tpicks]

I use the satellite connection I do this when I am looking to watch matches. Soccer is what mostly still draw me to my TV. I hardly have time to watch more of TV these days.

I used to have DirectTV but that has been ages ago,and now I just watch Netflix or Hula these days, through the "streaming of movies and shows". This seems the way to watch movies today and old TV series as well,and they have a lot of these on Hula -and two that I like watching are"The Doris Day Show" and "Doc Martin" -a BBC show that takes place in Cornwall England.
