After two years with Dish and much down time I changed and the difference is remarkable.
People who have trouble with Direct TV may not have read the directions or understood them. It is as close to flawless as you can find.
It also pays to upgrade your receiver every two or three years. All it is is a computer. And improvements are made all the time .

I'm glad you had a good experience. My downtime with Direct TV was intolerable. First, they hooked it up wrong and I spent two months without HD. During that two months, the receiver hard drive crashed and I had to send it back to wherever. It was a week before I got the new receiver and had to hook it up myself. I was an hour on the phone with customer support and they couldn't figure out how to make it work. Finally, a high level support staff was able to determine that it was sent to me way out of whack.
Every time, and I mean every time, it rains, the signal is lost completely. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes to get it back. WHAAAAAAAAA!
It's always the last 10 minutes of the program or sporting event I am watching.
