Sharper, cleaner, and with a lot less mosquito noise.
With DirecTV, when I watched golf, the course looked more like green oceans than grass. With Cable One, when I watch golf on one of the HD channels, it IS grass. I'd estimate the improvement is 47,687% better.
The flesh on people's faces no longer shifts around. Eyeballs stay where they are. Programming is watchable again.
I did have to pull some clever legal maneuvers against DirecTV to keep from having to pay an early termination fee. <SPIT>. Well, not really clever. I merely had to research the laws WRT contracts in my State, and I discovered that DTV had made a huge error which means they are not legally entitled to the fee. YMMV.
“WRT contracts”? Short explanation? Thanks in advance! ;-)
We’re subjected to Comcast here for cable. Both Dish and Direct are available, a neighbor has one of them, but I’ve not gotten the bug. Comcast has outages at times, but I know from the neighbor that it’s not as frequent as he experiences. I think much of his problem is trees in the area. At least he mouths off about it (as well as other stuff). Me, I’m happy. I just wish we had carte blanche with our lineups. There’s a bunch of crap I’d drop and a couple I’d add. But only a couple.
