    Re: Dish v. Cable

    I lived in Omaha all of my life up until college. I have had DirectTV before and disliked the service and quality. The overall dish installation was below par and is an obvious eye soar on the house. Our family switched to Cox, probably 3 years ago and have never had a problem. Very friendly and came out quickly with every issue we ever had. Cox > Dish

    And for what it is worth, I have Dish Network and think it works better, gives more variety and choices then Mediacom ever did through cable.
    Yeah, I know it sounds crazy but it's true. It's one of those things that just kind of happens over time. You buy a better one for the living room then move that one to a bedroom, etc. You see a good deal at Best Buy and so you put one in the garage over the beer fridge so you can watch football while grilling. That kind of thing...

    That sounds like a great way to get to 10 TVs. I think I should try that, hopefully the wife will go for it.
    Your shopping cart, like your impoverished soul, is empty.

    We switched to DirecTV a year ago after years of frustration with Mediacom. Weather has not been an issue, actually have had fewer service issues that we had with Mediacom.

    Much happier with TV service, but Mediacom internet was better that Qwest DSL.
