I have had the Embarq DSL for 18 months with no price increase and I use the middle speed they offer. No disappointments but I don't play games.

I have DirecTV. My reason is for the NFL ticket. My neighbors have Dishnetwork and all seem pleased.
Only 1 remote with DirecTV and even the non hi-def picture of satelite TV is better than cable and my neighbors with Dishnetwork agree with that.

Any satelite service channel changing will take about 3 seconds vs cable's nearly instant picture change.
