Directv what do you miss?

Biggest issue with Dish is no NFL Sunday Ticket. For me, it was the reason for Directv. For 50 years my team had run the gamut between fringe contender, to irrelevant, to complete suck. The only way to consistently see them was either move to the city, buy season tickets and go to the game or buy the Ticket. Thankfully, the worm has turned. My team is now must see TV, and the vast majority of their games are the national broadcast. The few that aren't are a great excuse to go to a sports bar. So now, Dish is as good a choice. Like someone else posted, the only other real drawback is getting to learn a new remote and a new channel guide. And of course you still have to navigate the occasional pricing feud when either Dish or Directv has to black out a network during the standoff.

We had direct in the house and dish in RV. We had direct for many years and moved a box back and forth. We put dish in the RV and it took some time to get use to the guide. Now we have dish in the house and the RV on one account. When you get use to how it works they are both fine.

Easier to set up in RV...as in easier to aim antenna?? What are issues with Dish DVR? I like the $40 savings too!
