As of today satellite tv deals is still not yet legal here in the Philippines. The monopoly on communication services for television is preventing small companies to provide a better viewing experience because it will lessen their income. Sale of equipments for satellite TV were confiscated and so we are left with the poor cable TV service.
When I say monopoly, I mean monopoly. The channels offered by different cable TV channels here are just about the same as the other and sometimes some channels that are supposed to be viewable in the said company comes very grainy to almost unwatchable.
In the states, the switch to cable to satellite tv is as common as can be. Most people are now making a switch and have a great deal on satellite tv offers. They are not deprived of being able to watch their favorite TV shows , movies or sporting event because satellite TV are affordable too. Imagine for a starting package of $29.99 they can have access to more than 250 high quality channels, watch 60 pay-per-view movie channels, an access to 2 dozen international channels, have a feast with the 31 movie channels, 67 XM satellite radio channels and 10 different sport packages.
Aside from that most images they receive are high definition and not grainy as compared to cable TVs. In case you would like to record some of the shows you love to watch, or record a sport event for a friend in digital video format, you can have a DVR at no extra charge. They have a subscription package that will enable you to get this device at no extra cost. Installation is free, not just for one room or one TV but it is free up to four rooms and four TVs. That’s just among the many advantage of DIRECTV Vs. Cable, the services I wish I and my countrymen can enjoy too.
