Direct TV or The Dish Network......?

Voom baby. Voom.

I've got Dish now. Had directtv. Both had about the same channel lineup. But i do notice that included in my 60 channel package is about 20 home shopping channels. And I am not exagerating.

It's a direct tv reciever with a personal video recorder built in (it has a hard drive for storage)

They're hackable (legally & DTV seems to encourage it, as long as you're not attempting signal theft), and they learn from your viewing habits & record stuff you might want to watch.

Dish. They told major networks to fugg off to keep consumer costs down. I cant fault a company for not trying to continually trying to rape its customers.

Didn't Dishnet buy out DirecTV not to long ago? Anyone know if this is true?

Federal regulators wouldn't approve of the merger/buyout. It would have created a monopoly.
