I recently called to cancel DirecTV, and the package and price that I was quickly offered to stay was so attractive I couldn't pass it up.

I had to conclude that they are getting desperate to keep their customer base.

If you are under contract they will beat your brains out with it and demand the high prices. If not they will negotiate. Since AT&T bought them out they have went to hell in a hand basket.

Before the current Genie set up I had two old Hughes SD 40 DVR’s with Tivo. That was a setup! I had one hacked and two 500G hard drives with right at 1000 hrs of record time and another one hacked with 400+ hrs of recording time. Alas they finally gave out and after using spares and parts for years that came to an end and the Genie and higher prices showed up...
