Question: Is Satellite TV, Such as Dish Network, Really Better Than Cable?

As the war in video entertainment continues, one thing is for sure: satellite television is here to stay.

When the satellite distributors first began marketing to consumers, the cable industry didn’t give their new opponent much thought. Dishes were expensive, they were bulky and their program offerings weren’t all that impressive. Cable on the other hand had been around for more than a decade and offered a familiar and reliable solution to home entertainment.

But oh how things have changed.

The satellite industry quickly replaced those bulky dishes with sleeker, smaller systems that could be mounted just about anywhere. Prices dropped, programming grew and pretty soon, switching from cable to satellite TV wasn’t such a far-fetched idea after all.

Today, the Satellite TV industry and providers, such as Dish Network, enjoy a steady and continued growth in subscribers and services, gradually closing the gap in video entertainment market share. Where the cable industry has reported an annual growth between 10 to 15 percent, top satellite companies, such as Direct TV, boast a market share increase of just under 30% according to a study from The Media Audit.

So is satellite and providers such as Dish Network really better than cable?

Satellite TV customers seem to think so. Studies show that satellite customers pay an average of $10 less per month than their cable counterparts. Satellite programming is also all-digital, meaning the reception and picture quality is much better than that of traditional analog cable. Cable subscribers do have the option of upgrading to digital but this incurs an additional monthly cost and doesn’t guarantee all the channels will be included in the upgrade. And, with the healthy dose of competition in the satellite industry, consumers can be assured of continued competitive pricing. Your cable provider doesn’t have any competition. Do you suppose that affects your rate increases?

Satellite TV subscribers also tout a higher satisfaction rating with customer service issues, one of the primary reasons cited for making the move from cable.

Well if you like to listen to music the answer is yes!

But you probably already have a radio that works quite nicely and are wondering why you might want to switch, right?

Satellite radio is a paid subscription – it works via a satellite feed so you can listen to the radio anywhere you want and there is no range restrictions so your favorite song won’t become garbled with static as you drive down the road out of range. It works like satellite television, except it can travel with you. A satellite radio can go in your home, your car or you can carry it around with you. It provides crystal clear digital sound no matter where you are and is commercial free.

Satellite radio can really open up the range and choices of music. With satellite radio subscriptions, you typically have access to several music channels, which reach all genres and subgenres of music. The best providers will also provide you dozens of channels for the latest news, talk radio, and information, along with local traffic and weather forecasts and all the sports events you could want.

XM Radio is rapidly growing and services over 2 million listeners providing 68 music channels. With this satellite radio, you can get country, rap, classical, bluegrass, rock, reggae and most anything else you can imagine. IN addition, there are over 30 channels just for news , sports, talks shows and other entertainment programs that don’t include music. And if that’s not enough there is another couple of dozen channels that provide weather and traffic for most major cities.

If you want satellite radio you will need a reciever and antennae to pick up the satellite feed. This equipment is state of the art, and the best subscription services also offer AM and FM as well as CD accessibility. Satellite radio can be set up to work with your existing home entertainment system, in your car or as a portable that you can bring with you.

Some of the new satellite radios and receivers are quite small and lightweight and good for carrying around. All satellite receivers will conveniently display the channel, song title, and artist name. If it’s a sporting event, they abbreviations for each team will be shown so you can find that game you are looking for instantly instead of having to wait until the announcer mentions one of the teams.

Of course, satellite radio is perfect for listening to in the car since you won’t have to fiddle with tuning knobs or try to find a new station as you drive out or range of what you are listening. Conveniently, many new cars are coming equipped with satellite radio service and even offer it free for 30 days. Don’t worry, though if you don’t want to pay for the service after your trial is up, your radio receiver will still work with the usual AM and FM channels.

Lets face it, Internet readers, most of us are guys. And as red-blooded American guys, we all have mens desires, mens needs. Dont play coy. You know what Im talking about. We want it faster, more creative, more imaginative, and not to put too fine a point on it, slimmer. We know well have to pay for it eventually we always dobut wed rather not break the bank just for a little nighttime fun. Theres a wide variety out there to choose from, so point us in the right direction and well happily engage in the hunt. But why do they make us work so hard to get it? Sure, were tech-savvy geeks, even nerds, but does that mean everything has to be some huge intellectual puzzle? Is there a way to make these people give up the goods with a bare minimum of confusion? Im talking, of course, about home consumer electronics, specifically satellite television systems.

Look, Im sorry if I led you on, but I hope Ive provided a more interesting introduction to the world of home satellite equipment than most industry vendors have. Take a look, for example if you dare at RapidSatellite.com, a one-stop Internet shopping point for satellite TV. A recent search turned up the following entries:

DIRECTV DVR80 3-Room 70 Hour DIRECTV DVR Satellite TV System w/ TiVo (1) DVR80 (2) D10 with Standard Dish, Multi-Switch & Standard Installation

DIRECTV DVR80 3-Room 70 Hour DIRECTV DVR Satellite TV System w/ TiVo (1) DVR80 (2) D10 with Triple LNB Dish & Standard Installation

DIRECTV 3-Room 70 Hour DIRECTV DVR System w/ TiVo (2) TiVo Receivers (1) Hughes Director Receiver with Standard Dish, Multi-Switch & Standard Installation

DIRECTV 3-Room System (1) HR10-250 200 Hour (STD) 35 Hour (HDTV) DIRECTV High Definition DVR w/ TiVo (2) DIRECTV Receiver System with Triple LNB Dish & Standard Installation

A little help here? Those ads are about as welcoming as a brick wall, and they present us with more acronyms than the U.S. military. For pure reading pleasure, they rank somewhere between Finnegans Wake and the book of Leviticus. Am I buying satellite TV service, or naming robots for science fantasy sequels?

Relax, Luke Skywalker. Scanning through orbital space may not be like dusting crops, but well work our way through this thing together. Lets start with the first ad.

DIRECTV DVR80 3-Room 70 Hour DIRECTV DVR Satellite TV System w/ TiVo (1) DVR80 (2) D10 with Standard Dish, Multi-Switch & Standard Installation

Okay, first things first. DirecTV is a national satellite TV subscription service owned by Hughes Electronics and, in large part, Fox Entertainment. In order to watch DirecTV programming, one must first by a dish to collect the signals beamed to Earth by the satellite. Then one must buy a set-top box to decode those signals. Lastly, one must have a TV of some kind to display the imagery represented by those signals. The first ad is trying to sell us a hardware package thatll allow us to watch DirecTV, but it adds a few nifty bells and whistles. For example, this package includes another device called a DVR80. And what exactly is that? It looks like a license plate.

Good guess! No, a DVR80 is a brand of receiver manufactured and sold by RCA. To be more precise, it receives DirecTV signals as well as TiVo interactions. TiVo is a kind of DVR, or Digital Video Recorder, manufactured by the TiVo company. A Digital Video Recorder does exactly what it claims to do: It records video, not on tape as a VHS video recorder would, but as digital data in a dedicated hard drive. The DVR80 is capable of recording up to seventy hours of digital material, just as promised obliquely in the ad. What the ad doesnt make clear is that the amount of material the hard drive can store depends on how detailed the information is. Just as a VHS tape can hold anywhere from two to six hours of material, depending on the image quality, so do DVR image recordings suffer when recorded at the seventy-hour setting. The DVR80 has Dolby Digital sound capability and comes with a universal infrared remote control. When sold separately, it retails for anywhere between $100 and $150.

The comparison to VHS tends to minimize what TiVo can do. The hardware and allows for instant replays of live TV, plus the ability to skip through commercials while a program is airing. The Season Pass feature tracks the users favorite shows, even if they change network time slots, and records them each week automatically. Its even capable of predicting which unfamiliar shows the user might like, based on his or her previous recordings. Simply put, TiVo is neato.

But what in blue blazes is a D10? Isnt that Eminems Detroit rap posse? No, that would be D12, Slim Shady. A D10 is nothing more than the set-top box that receives DirecTV signals. It features an Advanced Program Guide interface, and is capable of receiving signals from several DirecTV satellites to the tune of over 225 channels. The box itself costs about $50 retail. A multi-switch is, well, a switch designed to allow more than one set-top box to receive information from the same satellite dish receiver. Some models feature built-in amplification. The model offered with this package has three different outputs to send video to TVs in three different areas of a house. Other multi-switches are designed to allow one satellite dish receiver to provide video to more than one home. As might be easily guessed, DirecTV does not encourage the sharing of its video offerings by entire neighborhoods of houses. It does, however, promise to install these devices for you, at a combined package cost of only $47.95. What a bargain! Its a good thing RapidSatellite doesnt charge by the acronym.

The second ad presents only one new complication, the Triple LNB Dish. A Triple LNB Dish, also known in DirecTV parlance as a Phase III Mulitsatellite Dish, is an 18 by 20 dish receiver that collects broadcast signals from three different satellites. Customers with high-definition TV sets will definitely want to upgrade to Triple LNB, because without it, its impossible to receive satellite broadcasts in HDTV. LNB stands for low-noise block. Its the device that hangs off the arm of the satellite dish and looks sort of like a flashlight. So what does it do? To find out, we first have to crane our necks and stare up into orbit. The DirecTV satellite at 101 degrees has 32 transponders, numbered 1 to 32 for some reason, each of which sends a group of channels. Back on Earth, an LNB converter responds to changes in the voltage transmitted by the DirecTV receiver by looking at either the odd- or even-numbered channels. A Triple LNB Dish, not too surprisingly, includes three LNB converters, each operating independently of the other two. That way, three different DirecTV receivers can look at three different stations on three different transponders. Long story short, it means Mom can watch HGTV while Dad checks out Sports Center. Meanwhile, their progeny have gathered around a third TV set to enjoy Aqua Teen Hunger Force, all at the same time. Thanks to DVR and TiVo technology, its entirely possible that all three programs were recorded weeks ago.

As for the third ad, a Hughes Director is the standard receiver offered with basic DirecTV packages. How standard? Many DirecTV vendors are now offering the device free with purchase of a dish receiver. Still, its a perfectly adequate receiver, with many of the features offered by the snazzier DVR80. While it cant record video, it does offer a WatchWord search feature that scans through DirecTV program menus and alerts the user when favorite shows are about to come on.

The HR10-250 receiver is a much pricier alternative, cashing in at somewhere around a thousand bucks. Still, as Ferris Bueller once noted, It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up. It contains four tuners and a built-in DVR with TiVo. These four tuners allow for two HD shows to be recorded at once, even as the user watches a third prerecorded show. The 250 gigabyte hard drive holds about 30 hours of HDTV, or as many as 200 hours of non-high-def video (at 480 lines of pixels). PCWorld critic Cathy Lus review of the HR10-250 decided, Cost aside, the DirecTV HD DVR is the best way that I’ve found to watch and record HD. She gave it four and a half stars out of five. Thats pretty good for a machine whose profoundly uninspired name makes it sound like a tax form.

As with all technology, there are always common myths and misconceptions that prevent many people from experiencing that, which would drastically improve their lives. This is true with Dish Network’s digital high definition satellite television services.

Many people think that even though there may be 4 different receivers in 4 different rooms, everyone has to watch the same programming. This is not true. Dish Network offers 4 free receivers, one each for 4 different rooms, to enable different viewing interests.

The weather – it consistently affects the quality of programming. As a general rule, this is false; however, if there is heavy and consistent storming, there may be brief interruptions of reception. This is rare and is considered less of a problem to satellite subscribers.

Satellite reception is available only for individual homes. This is another myth as reception if signaling is excellent in apartment complexes as long as the dish is installed facing a southern sky. Many people have them located on their balconies or outside walls. Always remember, though, if you don’t own the apartment or home, be sure to check with the landlord before installation.

High-speed Internet service is only available through cable companies. This is not true. Dish Network offers high-speed Internet service via satellite. Location is not a problem as signals are transmitted through space from Dish Network’s satellites. You will not experience down time from server problems because of weather or maintenance.

Rumor has it that cable companies tell prospective subscribers that their pricing is cheaper than that of satellite programming. This is not true. Comparisons reveal that satellite prices are within the same range and sometimes lower than cable providers with much more value per dollar. The increased availability of diverse programming in selections and the quality of imaging and sound make the difference giving you more for less money. Click on Dish Network now for a complete listing of programming and pricing information.

Cable providers would also have customers believe that customers must purchase all equipment to receive satellite services. Again, this is not true. Dish Network offers all equipment and installation free of charge, and even gifts new subscribers with a Dish Network Digital Video Recorder – further enhancing viewing pleasure. All free with no requirement for long-term commitments. The only item you are charged for is the programming you desire.

A lot of people think that because of the advanced technology utilized in Dish Network’s digital high definition satellite services; there would naturally be expensive equipment repairs at some point in time. While the nature of the expense of equipment repairs may be true, be assured that when you subscribe with Dish Network for an 18-month plan, you receive Dish Home Protection Plan free (regularly $5.99 per month). This is more or less an equipment insurance provided by Dish Network to save subscribers money in repairs and replacements of equipment.

It is hoped that this information will dispel any misunderstands you may have head and enable you to make a positive decision to switch from cable television services to Dish Network digital high definition satellite television services.

The company of dish network tv and directv have been competing for the top spot for many years. As long as most can remember, it has always been dish network vs directv in the world of satellite television.When someone is looking for a satellite TV deal, comparing offers from Dish Network and DirecTV is almost a must-do proceduer.

Here are some common comparisons that potential satellite TV consumers interested:

1. General comparisons between Dish Network and DirecTV

Dish Network offers the most competative satellite TV price. They beat DIRECTV a little in pricing and beat cable TV a lot. Quite a number of the online Dish Network dealers are offering free DVD and DVR that records up to 100 hours of programming now in the promotion period. while DirecTV, although with a higher price, they offer some attractive premium packages like NFL Sunday Ticket that Dish Network doesn’t have. With Sports season pass feature on TiVo, DirecTV lets users record an entire season without re-runs.

2. Programming comparisons between Dish Network and DirecTV

Over 256 channels are available for Dish Network programming. Dish Network broadcasts as many as 231 NFL pre-season, regular season and post-season playoff games without having to purchase a costly season package subscription! (Game access subject to channel availability and programmer restrictions.) It has more comprehensive international programming with additional foreign language programming packages.

DirecTV supports up to 225 channels in their broadcast. DirecTV has exclusive rights to some sports channels, but you need to pay an extra fee to get these channels. Some of the sports packages include NHL Center Ice, MLB Extra Innings, NY Yankee Games, NBA League Pass and NFL Sunday Ticket which gives you access to almost every NFL game.

3. Customer services comparisons between Dish Network and DirecTV

Both Dish Network and DirecTV has a 24 hour customer service line. As Dish Network concerns a lot about their customer relationships and they monitor their dealers pretty well in term of customer satisfactions. VMCSatellite, one of the online Dish Network dealers, once won JD Power top customer satisfactions within two continuos year.

4. Satellite systems warranty comparisons between Dish Network and DirecTV

Most Dish Network dealers offers life time warranty for their basic satellite equipments. DirecTV dealers normally provide a 2 year extended warranty from the day of activation of their satellite systems.

5. Monthly cost comparisons between Dish Network and DirecTV

Dish Network base package starts from $19.99/mo. and DirecTV base package starts from $29.99/mo.

No matter which one you decide to go with, you’re sure to get a great deal with some really good service. Even though they are both good, the continuing war of Dish Network vs Directv will probably go on for many more years to come
