You've decided that satellite television is better for you than cable. You've seen the advantages of satellite on your friend's television setups. Now, the question is deciding which service you want to use.
When considering the two major satellite television companies, you'll have to weigh your options carefully. In the world of free market, competition is the butter on the bread. It's what's spread on top of the basic service you're going to get. One company is going to tout certain advantages, and the other company is going to tout their advantages.
The trick is getting what you want. Though it would be nearly impossible to set up every customer with their very own customized packaging, you'll still want to look at all the options, advantages, and disadvantages for each company you're considering.
What Your Friends Say About Satellite
There are basically two kinds of people when it comes to their television service. The first are the ones who are committed to the deal, not the company. The second is the ones who are adamant about the company, not the deal.
As you listen to your friends and contemplate their views, make mental notes about what they are saying. If they are in it for the deal, what was it that convinced them it was a better deal? If they are loyal to a company, what aspects keep them there?
Making Your Satellite TV Choice
While you're searching, surfing, and chatting, there are a few questions you will want answers to:
* Consider what you want from your service. Do you just want something to watch for as little money as possible? Or do you want a full entertainment experience from your service? While one may be priced better than the other, you'll want to look at what's included, what's not, and how much you're going to have to pay to add on the things you want.
* When savoring the element of HDTV, you'll want to consider which channels are more important to you, and are they going to be add-ons, or included in your package?
* When you run into problems, what is the customer service going to be like? How much are you going to have to pay if something does go wrong?
* How difficult, or easy, is it going to be to navigate through your remote? Will you have access to features such as "on demand", internet options, pay-per-view, and are included or add-ons?
Make your own list. Go over to a friend's or family member's and play around with their system (just don't erase their entire play list!). Surf the sites and see who has what you want.
If you take a little time, you'll get the satellite television service you really want.
