That's what I pay for my DishHD, AT&T DSL, and phone. It;s not bundled, but together I pay right at $140 myself. Later, QD.

Same here, def worth it.

If you are going to get HD, get DirecTV. Much better guide and channel selection.

**Nittanys1** · 02-09-2009, 07:44 PM

we r paying $99/month for our bundle but after x amount of months the price goes up :-/

**Nissan Sean** · 02-09-2009, 07:47 PM

Having the 65" HD TV helps as well.

Yes, DirecTV is WAY better than Comcast OR Dish. I've had Direct for 13 years now, and I'd never even THINK of switching to anyone else.

And DirecTV's HD-DVR's are getting better every week, thanks to a beta testing program I participate in. I'm also a part-time moderator on DBSTalk.com, which deals with both DirecTV and Dish.

Great site, BTW

**JITB** · 02-10-2009, 02:39 AM

only reason i never had Dtv, is my friend has had DTv every since i known him. And when it would rain they couldnt watch TV, this was a few years ago.. but it always sucked on stormy days. But im sure it has gotten better now..

**civic95** · 02-10-2009, 07:08 AM

I have comcast HD. It's alright. It's a extra $20 a month, and to be honest I probably watch 4 hrs of HD programming a month. I called them last night to see how much it would be to hook up to our 2nd TV, and it's another $20 a month. I think they should give you a break on a 2nd, 3rd TV.

Most of what I watch is downloaded (720p format) using my laptop, and connected to the TV. I should just cancel cable all together.

**osnap** · 02-10-2009, 07:28 AM

i have comcast HD... its alright i guess, though honestly if it werent for my roommate i doubt id have it, i barely watch tv as it is. its nice every now and then though.

**BKgen®** · 02-10-2009, 08:52 AM

DirectTV + HD + DVR = pure win.

**DinanM3atl** · 02-10-2009, 10:00 AM

I like my Comcast HD has worked for me and I enjoy it. Never had a problem with it.

I get all the channels that I would want to watch in HD so no complaints.

I would consider switching but everytime I go somewhere and watch something with bad weather... the owner says "This never happens". Well it happens everytime we try and watch anything roflmao

**Jbauer** · 02-10-2009, 12:05 PM

i gotta pay an extra 20 a month for POS HD? thats a scam..i've got comcast too...switched from Directv..will NEVER be going back, but crap, an extra 20 bones a month? forget that.
currently my bundle is cable, internet and phone for 99 dollars

**csmiths** · 02-10-2009, 12:37 PM

I have it and I have not had on complaint. But my boss has AT&T which goes through fiberoptics, and that shit is stupid good

**ISAtlanta300** · 02-10-2009, 12:46 PM

i have comcast hd with dvr and so far it is very good. Nothing like watching Summer Glau in HD (terminator).

yea but only newer houses are run with fiber optics, so its not cheap to put into an older house

**Tech5** · 02-10-2009, 05:22 PM

You don't put it in/pay to have it put in.

Your neighborhood gets wired with it. If you see a lot of AT&T trucks running around your neighborhood and tearing up the ground, the area is probably going "green" (getting lined with fiber optics).

If you have questions about AT&T's advanced TV options (whether it be UVerse or DirecTV), please let me know and I will get you an answer.
