Smile Multiple TV's

We have had 4 TV's. When we had Comcast they charged $17.00 per DVR for each TV. We now have Direct TV and pay $6.00 for their Genie. It is much better in addition to being cheaper. You can record up to 5 shows at the same time on the Genie and its 3 or 4 other TV's at the same time. Each time you sign on you can see all that is and has been recorded on the all the Genies and play any back. The Genie's are much much better than the Comcast $17.00 rip off. The only regret we have is waiting so long to go to Direct TV from Comcast !! One clue. When they install the Dish you may want to have it on a stand on
the yard as opposed to the roof as there is some talk that the roof warranty may be cancelled if you put the dish on the roof. Ours is on a stand outside and you can hardly see it.
