I hate satellite TV. We've had both and they're crap. Every time a
cloud rolls by they go out. They claim that it doesn't happen but it
does and they can't/won't fix it. No thanks.


You must have a decent cable company. We don't. Cable would go out in
light rain, and a hundred other reasons. My neibor stopped over the
other day and was complaining about the cable company and how email is
down frequently.

Takes a really bad storm for DirecTv to go out. In a year we may lose
15 minutes and get pixelation a few seconds a month if heavy storm
clouds. It kept working even in a blizzard.



That's been my experience with Satellite as well. During a snow storm if
the dish stops working it's time to take a broom or a hockey stick or
something and brush the snow off.

We have no cable company, I've looked. I'd love to be rid of AT&T, but
only if the alternative isn't worse. To their credit, they're usually
reliable... but I do lose connection for a few minutes every once in a
while.
