Up until the last year or so I often steered clients towards Directv, basically stating as follows. "All tv service providers suck, Directv happens to suck the least".
I am withdrawing my statement of them sucking the least. I say this as a former installer and customer of almost 20 years now.
You are stating that things with DirecTV used to be better.
And they have changed.
I just can't Dish Network. I had some extremely negative experiences as an installer for them back in the day and I still refuse to recommend their product.
You're stating that things with Dish used to be horrible, but you don't maintain the flexibility you had with your DirecTV opinion. The logic by which you eliminate DirecTV, fairly applied, would lead you to try Dish!
Maybe time to revisit Tivo+cablecards? Have a job I am in the design phase on that the client is asking for Tivo on.
Why might these be better, but not Dish? (I ask this as a DirecTV customer.)
