direct tv or Dish

I like Direct, and dont like Dish. Maybe it just familiarity but I cant stand using Dish when I go back home to see my mom. I do agree though that when the weather sucks it dont matter who you have for satellite you will loose the signal. On that note, I will never go back to Comcast! They are by far the worst to deal with and constantly jack there prices around. Every month I had to call them for 2 years to get my bill straightened out.. I'll take the lost signal over that any day!
