Mad Men, Comedy Central, TBS, History, and flicker-free locals for $15 a month, plus a DVR without a monthly fee. That enough? ;^)
Great HD picture...fast program guide...best customer service...easy to use dvr...not to expensive neither
For me the "extra" things. AAD, Superstations, EuroNews. Also very happy with the Platinum/BB package. Have to add the EHD works very well for us.
Superstations, HD, service satisfaction, been with Dish since 1998, left cable, not interested in any move to Direct.
Dish's EHDD archiving method...
Agreed. I also love their guide setup, channel grouping and speed better than Directv.
Ohhh and two big ones!!! Even though it may rain hard...and the dish may go out...it always comes back on within 1-3 min. When I had cable...id deal with hours....even days of outtage.
Had att uverse for the last three years. Back with dish now. Before att...id been with dish for about 7 years. Att froze up...would go frame by frame for days. Technicians would come out...none knew what was goin on...but would always blame the lastguy there. Thats been a bi monthly thing for almost three years. Being at there mercy, via there services going down powerlines..its nice to not lose dish due to somebody hitting a telephone pole...or thiefs stealimg there copper wire. Had that happen with att...took three days for att to replace the copper wire.

International channels, and some of the lower introductory prices such as Dish Family and the Welcome pack is what Dish has over the competition. Thats it.
Nothing...that's why I bailed on Dish years ago; they just couldn't compete with the Cable Triple Play nor the picture quality of FiOS TV. Having said this factoid, my mother in-law has a minimal programming package with free HD (auto pay) and is using one of my old VIP622 receivers. It's an affordable solution for her viewing habits (watches much of her programming via OTA antenna) coupled with the fact she only watching TV in one room (the multiple receiver fees are killer). I pretty much agree with Claude.
Any problems with your receiver ? The software is coming SSSSSSOOOONNNNN!!!!!!
That answer applies to just about anything you have questions for in regards to DISH.
