These switching service threads are almost funny.
Many have switched, only to find out there is nothing to gain in the long run.
I've had SD direct for 20 yrs, and have to call every year,... sometimes threaten them into giving me some kind of a special for another year. Friends switched from Dish to Direct a year ago, but now right back into the same hi prices. Sometimes I forget to take the sat rec w/ us in the RV, and find out that we don't need sat tv,.....sometimes watching the network OTA in HD.
As soon as Direct stops the SD, they are history in my house and RV. Both services are such a ripoff, its pathetic !!
