No, I get all the channels I need for $80 (well, until MSG got dropped, but that only affected Saturday's game, the remaining games are on the other networks). To get those same networks on DirectTV would cost $50 more. I say that because as I was pretending to place an order, I was not able to get the RSNs or FSC without subscribing to the highest tier of service. Add in three receivers (1 HD, 2 SD), and the monthly price it quoted me was $130 (after the promo involving Sunday Ticket expired after a few months). If I missed something let me know. At this point I have no intention of switching, but it might be a possibility at a later time.
