I have both and they both work exceedingly well despite my trepidattion about the speed of the internet service. I'm not thrilled with Century Link as I felt the start-up charges were somewhat excessive. I find their customer service is excellent when trying to reach someone but sadly, some reps might give you incorrect info. Long story. Please ensure, that you know what you are getting. IMHO

DIRECTV is the bomb. Great pictures and channel selection, especially if one is a sports nut. They will give you several perks when signing up, like the NFL Sunday ticket and some movie channels for three months free. You will have to call before the three months is up to cancel this option for the movie channels or you will see in your 4th month's bill. I believe the recording DVR is free upon installation, and $10/month after that. If you don't get a DVR, you have two weeks to change your mind, or they will ask for $199, to upgrade, or you will have to wait a year and a half.
