Direct tv sucks. I don’t know about spectrum since I’ve had att fiber for 5 years before coming here, I have xfinity 400M now.
For tv service, I looked at them all: YouTube, att tv, att universe, peacock, and others and nothing comes close to dish tv. I e had dish tv for over 20 years (except for the 3 month period which I tried direct tv, so bad I paid the penalty fee and went back to dish). For streaming, I liked att tv the best. It would have been around $70 a month and it would have got close to dish network coverage and it had decent, not great, recording capabilities.
There are so many features that dish has that nobody else has: 18 simultaneous recordings, we have 3 external hard disks connected to the hopper so you can expand on the 2000 hr capability of the internal disk (we have had movies on these disks for over 10 years without any problems), 30 second skipping of commercials, great dvr capabilities, start watch a show then finish it in another room, watching movies off the dvr or receiver in a different country, have 2 devices that you can move movies to and then these battery devices can be used to play movies without internet like on a plane, remote foreign place.
The biggest drawback was the price so I told dish that if you don’t come down in your price for 2 years that comes close to att tv, I’m cancelling and leaving for good. They did just that. When my contracts up in another 13 months, I’ll take a look and see how things compare, but in the mean time, dish is providing us with all the shows we like for a price that is comparable to anyone else but I get better benefits with dish
