I have both. I use basic cable for my local stations (and get 10 bucks knocked off my cable internet costs for having it)

I have cable. My cable company actually has a flaw, I only pay $12 a month...I should be getting the "basic" service, only the network channels, but they give me everything. :D

Nope, neither. Cable's not available where I live, & TV isn't important enough to my parents to warrant their getting a dish.

Both but I have no choice. We pay a maintenance fee here in my community and full cable is incuded if you want it or not. Just pay separately for my dish movie stations.

I don't really even care about the stations on cable, but it would be nice to be able to get a CLEAR picture for when I do watch TV. And I don't think getting rid of fuzzy lines is worth $360 a year.



denali: get a tuner card for your puter! :)

Dish here, too many channels with junk on imo, but cable around here doesn't even have mtv, comedy central, etc.

I have an antenna but then I don't watch much TV anymore. Spend most evenings on my puter or out with friends. It's funny how much crap there is on TV. I was trying to watch cable at my parents place Christmas Eve. I say trying because there really was not anything interesting on. Think 80 channels and nothing good on any of them.

I'd prefer a dish but have cable b/c it's so cheap ($10/mo - 70 channels) I also need cable modem.

Both. AT&T "Broadband" and DirecTV. DirecTV is cooler since I can get the UFC on PPV.
