Sky Cable Or Dream Satellite

[Travis]

I have cable now & there is not much to watch on tv for me so I am wondering if anyone who has satellite could tell me if it is any better & does it give more channels to watch?

Which is better? Watching a DVD is better. Just put up an antenna so the lady of the house can watch Wowowee for free. Buy movies with the money you don't spend on fees..

Hey, newb, first post. I've been Sky Cable subscriber for a couple years now and pretty happy with the service. I had to give them a hard time for a couple months until I finally got the internet speeds I was promised. Tip on that, they'll pull up speedtest d0t net and run a test from Manila. That's useless. How many sites do you surf that are hosted here? Make them run the test from San Francisco. Once that speed registers what you're paying for, then you'll be happy :867: One frustration w/ Sky Cable is they charge a monthly fee per room that has cable which I feel is ridiculous considering it costs them nothing more. I'm not talking about if you rent an additional cable box, just for having the line active. The house I'm in now already had active cable lines in each room and the installer tried to get a bribe for "activating them". I hooked up a TV to each one and said it's on, so no, I won't be paying you a bribe for that. Of course then I watched them like a hawk as they were leaving and sure enough, they tried climbing up on the pole to disconnect the additional rooms which I stopped them from doing. Alternatively, if you don't have connections in your other room, it is cheaper to pay the install guys a bribe than paying Sky Cable monthly. Generally I hate paying bribes but when it's to avoid getting ripped off by a company charging extra for something that costs them nothing, I'll make the exception. If you do pay the install guy a bribe be SURE to get his number in case you ever need anything else :)
