Cheap Satellite TV

TV30347107.jpg
Once considered a luxury reserved for schools, business, and the wealthy, satellite TV is becoming more and more mainstream as consumers are finding they can get a number of channels and features for a reasonable price.

One reason satellite TV has become so popular is because it provides a number of channels at a much cheaper monthly cost than cable does.

Dish Network and Direct TV are the main providers of satellite television. For the most part, Dish Network and Direct TV are pretty similar as far as pricing and channels are concerned. Direct TV is generally a little more expensive per month than Dish Network is; however, it has several channel and programming options that you wouldn't be able to get with Dish Network. If you decide you absolutely need those channels, going with Direct TV might be worth the extra money.

Direct TV

  • Direct TV offers the Standard Direct TV System for up to 4 Rooms, or the customer can opt for a free Direct TV DVR System for up to 4 Rooms, which includes 3 standard receivers and a Direct TV DVR Receiver. This is usually after the rebate, so the savings aren't instantaneous.
  • Standard Professional Installation. A certified technician will set up each system and receiver in the rooms you've chosen.
  • Free shipping and delivery, after rebate
  • Some incentives include your choice of a Home Theater/DVD System, DVD Player, Digital Camera or $1000 Shopping Spree.
  • A Free Advanced Triple LNB Dish is also included (this is the satellite dish that will be receiving your signals.
Dish Network
  • Dish Network offers free equipment for up to four rooms, as well as free HDTV and free DVR
  • The basic package cost is $19.99 per month for 60 Channels. This includes 25 free movie channels, including favorites like HBO, Showtime and Cinemax
.

One thing to remember when shopping around for cheap satellite TV is that while satellite TV often offers more channels than cable, many times a good portion of these channels are called fillers, or channels people don't normally watch. For example, a satellite company may offer 60 channels for $19.99 a month, but upon closer inspection of the channels, customers will see that many of the channels are actually fillers. The 60 channels for $19.99 package may include 5 different home shopping channels and another 4 or 5 channels that are local programming or station guides.

Finding the Cheapest Satellite TV

Once you've narrowed it down to either Dish Network or Direct TV, it's time to find a dealer. Both companies utilize authorized dealers to sell their services and equipment. Like most companies, these satellite dealers are in competition with each other and try to attract customers by providing a number of incentives, like free equipment or installation. Companies have deals like this all the time, so there really is no reason to have to pay for installation or equipment. Finding the best satellite deal takes a little research and, in some cases, a little time while you wait for the right deal or promotion to come around.
It's important to do research when comparing satellite TV. The best deals will offer a variety of free things, like free equipment, free channel upgrades, and free warranties. In addition, good deals will also offer things like two rooms for one price, HD receivers, and DVR receivers.
