Do yourself a favor and avoid Direct TV at all costs. The service is lousy, their customer service is abusive. The DVR boxes do not work. THERE IS A REASON THEY ARE THE ONLY TV COMPANY THAT MAKES YOU SIGN A CONTRACT. That's because they can not deliver service. It takes my new LCD TV an hour to warm up so that I can use the remote controls, and they told me that's how the new TVs are...no that's how their lousy equipment is. I paid $50 for a service call to be told this. They have a digital box and analog remote and the two do not work together. I am breaking my contract, I'll pay the $200 just to never deal with them again! read full review »
