direct tv vs dish network:
i read through the post and it doesn't look like anything is very great with either. when will every channel be in hd?
right now i have direct tv total choice plus on 3 tv's. my bill is about $63/month. if i upgarde to hdtv it sounds like it will go over $75 plus if i go with dvr, will they charge me another $5 per month for the hook up. i guess that's one of the biggest things that bugs me about switching from cable. i used to have every cable plug in the house wired up. now with direct i have to pay $5 per output.
right now which is the best deal for hd, direct or dish? i watch some sports and would like my local channels, but i would still like to get more hd channels than the 10 channels offered by direct or the 20 channels offered by dish/voom.
