Over the past years, increasing numbers of cable subscribers have decided to switch to satellite TV. With rising costs and limited programming available through cable, these people have made the right choice. Directv is the leading satellite TV provider with more than 14 million subscribers and provides many options in equipment and programming all at an affordable price. While cable TV transmits its signals through limited bandwidth cables, satellite television uses geosynchronous satellites that broadcast the signals to individual satellite dishes. Because these signals are transmitted through virtually unlimited electromagnetic waves, satellite TV is able to offer many more options than a cable subscriber is used to. This becomes apparent when you look at all the benefits that come with Direct TV.



For starters, Direct TV offers an incredible array of channels with programming that appeals to everybody. The basic package includes over 155 channels with favorites such as Disney, Comedy Central, USA, and ESPN. With 30 extra channels, the Total Choice Plus package provides an incredible assortment of XM commercial-free music stations and more family favorites like Discovery Home, The Golf Channel, and Nicktoons. For people who love movies and sports, Total Choice Premier is the ultimate home entertainment package. With stations such as HBO, Starz, Sundance and Cinemax, the whole family will find the movies they've been waiting to watch, and 30 sports channels will keep the sports fanatic up-to-date on all the latest games. And if more programming is wanted, Direct TV offers options such as Pay Per View, adult channels and seasonal sports subscriptions. Sports fans will love such options as the seasonal subscription to the NFL Sunday Ticket, which is broadcast only through Direct TV . And, if you are worried that you have to give up local channels with satellite TV, Directv is able to offer locals for almost every area in America.

With all the great programming, high quality picture and sound is of utmost importance, and Direct TV delivers in this capacity too. With 100% digital picture and CD quality sound, whatever is being viewed will come across crystal clear.

Along with an incredible array of programming with great picture and sound quality, Direct TV offers benefits such as the Digital Video Recorder (DVR). This amazing device is electronically interfaced with the satellite system and can record one station while another is being watched, pause live TV, or even rewind and replay live TV. It even allows interactive services such as horoscopes, weather or lottery results and a "find by" feature makes it easy to locate a program by title, actor, keyword or channel.
