>My HD from DirecTV adds $9.95 a month, but I've had it almost from the beginning. I've had DirecTV for nearly 9 years and it's been great. THe only outages I've ever seen are when extremely heavy rain moves through, and that's only for 10-15 minutes. Unlike cable, which would go out for many hours. Frequently.


That may be a little outdated. I have had Comcast for several years and their reliability has improved dramatically since the early days (since it was AT&T Broadband). It's very rare for it to go out now, maybe a couple times a year.
