How do you receive your television programming?

Right now, I think I am stuck with cable. I also live in the mountains where it can be tough to get broadcast TV by antenna. The cable company is relatively local and gives me all the Scranton stations, two from Allentown, and some from New York and Philadelphia. So far the one station conflict we had was when the Scranton Fox channel forced the cable company to drop the New York Fox station. That may not sound like much but it means local New York Giant fans miss games when Scranton broadcasts the Eagles instead. I tried switching to Direct TV at one point but the trees in my yard blocked to signal for the local Scranton stations which would have eliminated my network TV options. I'm not sure if I would miss the Viacom stations much but I do occasionally watch Spike and a few others. I considered Dish Network, but they long ago dropped SNY New York so that I couldn't watch the Mets. Now they are in a disagreemnt with AMC that has caused them to drop that channel. I wish Congress would pass a law making ala carte TV the rule that way we could pick (and pay for) what channels we really want on cable or satellite TV which might cue the providers into knowing what we really want to see. I for one, could easily live without all the music-only channels they run to build up their channel totals. The battles with satellite providers could be predicted based on the fights the cable outlets were having in the New York area.

I have cable for my tv programming. I also have my phone and computer service through my cable company. I had it all bundled. I decided to do this becasue I was getting sick of paying a seperate bill for phone/internet and cable! It is a little cheaper having it all bundled through my cable company. I get all the channels I want and have not had any problems.

We had a couple options when we moved in last year, but decided to stay with Time Warner for cable when it was going to cost less to bundle television, internet and phone. The other companies couldn't offer a better price. I'll admit if we just had cable costs, then it would have paid off changing; however, did save money by dumping the costly Verizon. Our telephone bill is about 50% less, so it was a great change. The part that is hard to believe we have Vonage and the Time Warner phone and the bill is that much less. If I didn't need a work phone it would have been about 75% less.

My satellite service provider is Dish Network. I'm pretty happy with them. We also use Netflix streaming video and that helps to broaden our choices when the regular programming isn't stuff we like.

I have Comcast cable. A long time ago I just used rabbit ears and had Comcast for Internet. Than they came out with a plan where if you added basic TV, the whole package of both Internet and TV was cheaper than Internet by itself. I have been fairly happy with it even after going through some problems when they switched to totally digital for TV(they sent conversion boxes for free). They also have a lot of TV on the Internet that can't be found elsewhere. I also have a small TV in the bedroom that I don't use often that is a digital TV and I use rabbit ears on it. For one station the rabbit ears have to be turned just right to get it.

Hi cotruelove... In my locality, we have both cable and dish facilities for viewing TV programs. Most often the cable viewing is disturbing as the pictures are not crystal clear. Hence i have dish connection to view first class pictures with digital sound. It is costlier than cable but no disturbance at all. Have a nice time,.

When I first moved here I found, to my dismay, that reception was nearly impossible. Rabbit ears were not enough and many people had those huge, tall tower antennas or the big ones on the top of their houses. So I got DISH and it was always being interrupted by winds, storms, solar flares, etc. As soon as I heard that U-Verse was available I jumped on it. Mainly because I got $350 in gift cards to sign up! But everything is underground fiber optic stuff and I'm so very pleased with the service. Not the price, though. When I move again I don't know what I'll get but it won't be a satellite provider. I'm really content with just network TV but I'll be living with my son who likes more variety. I've come to like it, too. I don't like paying all that money but since I don't go to movies or anything else I can justify the expense.

I have Verizon Fios and I love it. My ex-girlfriend had and still has Direct Tv and I'd only switch to it for the Sunday Ticket/NFL package and even that is now available on streaming devices like the Playstation 3.

I am bundled with my cable company which is Time Warner Cable. My service is pretty good but I believe that it is way too expensive for what I get. I have digital TV with HBO. I pay $170 every month for my TV, internet and home land line. It is not entirely my cable companies fault. A lot of the cost is due to fees and taxes but I am always looking at other options. The programming is just so - so. I find myself watching a lot of programs on just the regular network channels. I love watching a good movie but I often can not find one that fits my taste.
