Does anyone actually have solid facts on how often satellite services goes out compared to cable service? I would have to assume its pretty equal. Satellite may go out more often but for shorter amounts of time and cable rarely goes out but for extending amounts of time. Not only does TV service go out with Cable but so does the phone and internet when you have them all bundled together. This happened to my Uncle twice this last year and he was furious. He had no TV, phone or internet for over a week. We actually got a few Dish sales out of it because it affected an entire neighborhood.
I'd have to say the old argument of Dish going out more than Cable is a tired one and should be put to bed.

Being in Iowa we get plenty of heavy storms so I'll get about 6 times my signal goes out and anywhere from 1 to 15 minutes. It might go out once in the winter and all I have to do it knock the wet snow off of the dish. So at the worst my TV would have lost signal for a whopping 1.5 hours in the year. Now that's just a terribly unreliable service. 
We haven't been in a drought for all of those 16 years in my area. I will say that the only time I have had an outage was during a torrential downpour...
