DIRECTV beats Cable

DIRECTV Delivers More Variety than Cable

With DIRECTV you get more variety...a whole lot more. Choose the DIRECTV PREMIER Package and get over 255 all-digital channels including 31 premium movie channels from HBO, Cinemax, Showtime and Starz, 25 regional and specialty sports networks, and 72 commercial-free XM Satellite Radio channels. DIRECTV is also the only provider to offer NFL Sunday Ticket. You can't get that on cable.

DIRECTV Delivers Better Picture Quality and Reliability than Cable TV

DIRECTV delivers a crystal clear digital signal 99.96% of the time - rain or shine. That's better reliability than cable television provides. In fact, that's better than any other major cable or satellite TV provider. And with 100% all-digital channels, you can't beat the picture quality.

DIRECTV Delivers a Better Value than Cable TV

On average, DIRECTV is 74% less per channel than cable! With DIRECTV you'll get more choice and more quality for your entertainment dollar than you do with cable television. According to a recent study by J.D. Power and Associates DIRECTV has the lowest cost of service in the industry.* Our DIRECTV CHOICE package gives you more than 140 digital channels, plus local channels, for only $49.99 per month. For the same price with cable, you'll typically get 60-90 analog channels. Also, studies have shown that since 1998 cable tv prices have risen a whopping 41% while satellite TV prices have risen only 8%. You get a better value today, and an even better value down the road.

DIRECTV Delivers Higher Customer Satisfaction than Cable TV

DIRECTV has had a higher customer satisfaction rating than cable television providers for 6 years running! We didn't say that, the University of Michigan Business School did in their 2006 American Customer Satisfaction Index. There are a lot of unhappy cable customers out there. Don't be one of them. Get DIRECTV and be happy.
