We had Direct TV and then later Dish TV and both are pretty much identical. They both jack you around, keep raising rates, and just keep showing the same reruns. After experiencing both, we finally went back to normal over-the-air antenna TV. Its saved us a ton of money, and we have no hassles at all now.
It's been more than 4 years ago now we dropped Dish TV. Sometimes, when we stay at a KOA campground they will have cable TV. I'll go ahead and plug it in. Our favorite was HGTV when we had satellite. We find it extremely frustrating when we have cable, flip to HGTV, just to find out they are STILL showing the same absolutely identical shows, and just repeat the same thing over and over. Some shows we watched were reruns we remembered when we paid for it! And actually, I go ahead and unhook the campground cable, and just go back to over-the-air.
Did I mention how much they raised their prices, again and again and again, and we stripped out everything but the absolute basic service, and we were still well over $100 a month! It just sucked!
