I had horrible service with ATT DSL. And last I checked, Uverse is still not available in my part of the city. No thanks.

Did it yesterday after being with Dish for 12-15 years.

Wow talk about pure mother****ing evil. I thought cable companies were bad but they don't have jack shit on the networks.....110% uncalled for I can understand you being able to block access to the network without a transit agreement, but to then go ahead and block hulu too. Someone needs to take murdoch down a few pegs. Fortunately his empire is already crumbling around him...

I have been a Dish customer since 2004. I called them the other day and complained. Told them that they should give me a discount. They said they aren't giving refunds/discounts at this time. I told them that was BS and that they must want their customers to leave and go to their competitors. Then they said they could give me 3 PPVs ($6 each). I said that's a start. Watched those PPVs over the weekend. I'm still switching, though. Got Dtv setup to be installed on Sunday morning.

So far I have not noticed a real huge advantage/disadvantage between Direct and Dish. Being a new customer allowed me to get different receivers for more rooms in the house at no cost. That has been nice. But we also had the Dual PVR receiver from Dish that allowed rewinding live events on multiple TV sets in our house. We lost that, which kind of sucks.

And, we were still in the process of learning the channels on Direct. We were so used to the Dish Guide/Channel lineup, so that has been a big adjustment. As of right now, I would give the edge there to Dish, but that may change soon once everything gets learned by the whole family.

Not disappointed I switched, but don't see night a day difference yet either.
