Well, we recently switched from cable TV to DirecTV with the dish on the roof. I didn't research it much since we got a deal through my wife's employer. There were some surprises... DirecTV doesn't switch channels instantly - there a pause of maybe a half second or so between channels. A little irritating, but I can live with it. What's more irritating is that I can't use my TV's picture in picture since we only have one DirecTV tuner (am I right about that?). On the positive side, I get a better selection of channels, and being able to order movies is a nice feature, too. Good luck, Eric
