Also what kind of HD channels do Dish and Charter have? I have a HD TV.|||Pick six of one, a half dozen of the other. Or flip a coin. There are pros and cons to all of them. And they'll all offer you a cheap discounted price to get hooked up, and then gradually raise the rates on you
All are mandated by the government to continue providing analong TV service without extra charge through 2012, so they're charging extra for HD access. Presumably, when the mandate expires, the HD access will be no extra charge while the analog service will cost extra.
The technology of satellite TV does inherently favor digital transmissions so less adaptation is necessary for HDTV broadcasts. Additionally, a lot of the cable TV cabling is old and in need of upgrade, which is expensive and time-consuming for the company.
Yet, the other day when we had torrential storms and tornado warnings, I turned on the TV for local information and found that I had no reception due to the excess rain pooling in the dish. Although we don't get snow here, I'm told that you have to climb up and clean it out when you get it.
Yet, around here, you have to pay as much for cable as it costs for satellite, but the cable technology is 30 years old and decaying. Like I said, flip a coin and pick the lesser of the evils.|||Check the packages for Dish and cable.
See if you can get a guranteed long term price freeze.
For me, it was all about the $.|||I HAVE HAD DISH FOR 8 YRS NOW AND ONLY ONCE HAVE THEY RAISED THEIR PRICES ON ME AND IT WAS THIS YEAR THE PRICE INCREASE WAS 3 DOLLARS . ITS NOT BAD THE SERVICE IS GOOD. THEY ALSO PROVIDE THE DUAL TUNERS WHICH MEANS TWO RECIEVERS IN ONE SO THEY DONT CHARGE YOU PER BOX LIKE DIRECT DOES. THEY DONT HAVE MANY HD CHANNELS RIGHT NOW ITS TRUE BUT THEY ARE GETTING THERE. WELL IT DEPENDS IF YOU WANT HD OR NOT. PLUS DISH IS CHEAPER THAN OTHERS AND TRUE 100 PERCENT DIGITAL PICTURE UNLIKE CABLE. BUT THE DECISION IS REALLY UP TO YOU AND YOUR BUDGET THAT VERY IMPORTANT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS U CAN EMAIL ME .
