DTV v DISH...

I have dish I like it. Don't use the search though.

Inlaws has Dish and its a turbul interface.

Only sugestion for college football and basketball is look for SBnation's weekly list of games and create a list of stations you get.

My GF's parents have Dish. It feels like you're back in the early 2000s. I love DirecTV's interface.

I could probably lease 2 Kias for what I pay DirecTV monthly. I need to figure out a way to cut the sports cord.

This. Same with Verizon cellular and Comcast internet.

That said, when I go to my old man's house and try to watch his Comcast cable with two sets of fucking stations (the normal ones and the HD ones) or watch my buddies shake their AT&T iPhones trying to get service on game days, I don't mind paying the extra scratch for convenience.

It is getting annoying though

Cell phone, cable, internet bills are out of fuckin whack. Not sure how much longer us 'mericans are gonna sit here and take it up the butt.

Right?

Put me in a FEMA camp!!!!!

Condo association can not dictate your satellite provider or the fact that you have a 1 meter dish. Direct violation of Communications Act of 1996

My inlaws ended up with Dish because they got in on a 2 year @ $49/mth for a tier above the base package.

I'm guessing your association only saw $$$. You aren't going get them out of the new contract. Could get a PS4 and a Vue package but you're still paying for the skinfint Dish package.

I had an old landlord at an apartment a few years ago say I couldn't get DTV. I cited that act after I did my research, and they then conveniently said it's always okay as long as it's in a concrete stand that can be moved.

So I had a DTV dish in my back patio with a concrete bucket and 2x4 attached to it. Looked so redneck, but it worked like a charm. The DTV guy even did it all himself, he must know the drill.

Sony Vue that has BTN, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN News, FoxSports Detroit, FS1, FS2 and Network stuff. for $45/mth Pick up a PS4 for around $300. Ethernet from your modem to the PS4 and HDMI from the console to your TV.

You aren't effing around with a lot of extra cables and Direct TV is going to ding you for more than the $55/mth and the 2nd year of the contract.

Too bad it's a pain in the ass to use. Takes forever to get going and then you have to navigate through their programming schedule. My wife said eff it when I tried to explain it to her.
