I've been a DirecTV customer for over five years. Prior to joining DIrecTV, I was a cable subscriber and I wasn't too happy. The local cable company was the only choice, so they treated their customers poorly. All that changed with DirecTV. 

Their service is top notch, and any technical issues that have come up were addressed. Outages are almost unheard of. Sure, we experience rain or snow static maybe four times a year, but it is almost always a short term thing.

DirecTV's programming is huge in breadth. We subscribe to all the channels you can get and there is never a time we can go without finding something. 

The great thing about getting the programming is that there are always Direct TV Deals to be found. You can easily find a deal that allows to get and up and running for virtually no money.
