Direct TV vs Comcast
 
I would appreciate it if a member on TOTV could provide me with some advise regarding Direct TV vs Comcast. I am currently using Comcast in some form of a bundled program which includes Cable (with some extended channels..HBO, Show Time, etc.), I also have Comcast Internet and Phone.
The cost is around $200 per month, (does not include DVR's).
Does anyone have any information regarding a comparing with using Direct TV, and other service for Internet/Phone, (e.g.AT&T Internet/Phone, etc.etc.)
..Thanks..

As important as the price, do those of you who have Direct TV or DishNetwork
 
have a comment to offer regarding time off the air for inclement weather.
The skies of FL can be very active/cloudy even in non stormy weather.
What is your experience with losing signal during rain storms? Cloudy rainy spells prior to and post hurricanes?

In the 2 years I've had DTV, my outage has not exceeded 15-20 minutes.

OF course if you're trying to watch the weather warnings ....
it could be important!
