Dish or cable, its our own choice, but its the dish which gives excellent picture quality and uninterupted viewing I do have a dish installed at the roof top and Its best for me! What do you prefer?

Cable - I still have the local channels (which are very important to me), and have them in high-definition (HD). If i use dish (or directTV), I'm going to pay for the local channels in high-definition. The quality of either of those are actually based on whether you have an HD converter, and of course the TV set itself.
Of course it's different in California than anywhere else. And I don't know where you are, so *shrugs.*

Where I live Bell Canada charges a lot extra for those high definition local channels, a different charge for each one. But our Cable provider (Cogeco) charges a small monthly fee for all of them. We even get KTLA in HD.

Dish i have , actually , the Dish Network , which has lame A55 service compared to Direct TV, the cable is sorta better because , during the weather when it cloudy and rainy , the picture chops up and gets distorted or goes off completly until the weather or storm is over with.

I live in the Niagara Region, under the escarpment. We have WEATHER. I don't know where you live so that you can get uninterrupted satelite signals, but I don't live there. Our fiber-optic cable system is much more reliable (now that it's fiber optic) than any dish system I've seen. I'd love to have cable in my home now, but I can't afford the $50 a month for it.
