Sorry to have offended you with my post, but there is absolutely NO positive for people in the area of the country where I live to subscribe to any of these satellite operations. See, we live in the "hilly mountains" and it makes it nearly impossible for us to get "normal television" around here. With the FCC regulations that make it illegal for DirecTV and the others to provide us with our local station affiliates, it makes having DirecTV quite the impossibility.
Further, I am on broadband cable internet access through my local cable company. I get my internet access at a greatly reduced rate by also subscribing to cable. I cannot see subscribing to both DirecTV and cable at the same time - redundant. Further, I cannot see giving up the excellent service I get with my cable company for a satellite company where "Joe Blow" phone tech support is all I could ever get.
Flat out, I do not watch television much at all. I watch the local news and keep FoxNews on as background noise, when the music is not playing. The only show I watch on a normal basis is Big Brother, which is only on part of the year *sigh*. Not worth subscribing to DirecTV for an hour and eighteen minute TV concert - sorry.
ROCK ON FIRE BALL!!!
