    Why doesn't DTV have superstations?

    Being a recent convert from Comcast, I have seen a number of things I like a a few I don't. I do like the extra HD channels.

    How good / bad is Directv?

    After a visit today to Comcast's Office and finding that it will cost $8.90 to add a standard def box per tv I started thinking seriously about Directv. Then I started reading all these complaints and gripes about lost signal in storms, lousy customer service, and overbilling. It seemed like...
