Why did you change from Dish to Direct?

Btk
We had Dish for probably 5-6 years and switched to DirecTV 4+ years ago. Had zero issues/problems with Dish. Our main reason for switching: We were going to get HD service and the Dish package at the time didn't have a couple of channels available in HD that, for us, were show-stoppers. The DirecTV package which included those channels had more SD and HD channels than the comparable Dish package - - and I believe the pricing was just a bit better as well. So we went with DirecTV and have had overall good experiences with them since switching.

All those kinds of things are moving targets - what the situation was at that point in time has undoubtedly changed in the meantime.
