I have DISH because it does have better prices, better selection , excellent customer service, better interface 9on screen quide and menus) and FREE equipment with paid programing. You can get the Free equipment without buying every channel and paying a billion dollars a month too!When I compared the two. Direct TV did have a slightly better picture but did not have all benefits listed above that DISH does. Plus I liked only dealing with one service provider....a moot point now.(but still no rate increases guaranteed until 2000...a good start a year ago.)DISH also has a WebTV deal and has a high speed internet access port on the receivers for my computer that is suppose to be avaiable in April. Now the deal with Fox, another afiliation and another satillite and 500 channels.
