Bow -
Here is a 2007 TOTV discussion about television choices.

Personally, I started out with Comcast, but accepted an excellent package deal from Dish. Embarq was our only phone service at the time and the pkg included phone, internet and TV. Comcast has recently added phone service here, so you will probably be offered good pkgs from both.
However, now that my Dish contract has ended, I am going back to Comcast although Dish has a wider range of programs.
There are so many interruptions by storms with Dish and when the tornado in 2007 hit my village, I was without television shortly before, during and 3 days after. Luckily my home wasn't hit, but their repair trucks weren't allowed in here. My neighbors never lost Comcast. This was before everyone had weather radios, so it was frustrating not being informed other than a regular radio.
Just my thoughts - good luck to you
