TV Type?
 
Hey, my parents just decided to get Satelitte TV and it was installed today.

It is Bell ExpressVu, now I was wondering what you guys have?

Cable, Digital Cable or Satelitte and what's your take on it?(as in good, bad--pro's and con's.)

Used to have cable, now we've got sattelite, it has alot more channels for a much lower price.

Satellite, I'd rather have Cable so I could have cable internet, but I'm not the one paying for it so that's how it goes.

Cable

Cable TV + Internet = $65/mo.

I don't watch much TV, so I could care less. As long as I have my Comedy Central and Cartoon Network, I'm happy.

None. I get three channels:

Global Television
CTV (Canadian Television)
CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation)

Most of the good American shows go on those networks, along with some good Canadian ones, too.

gruesomeBODY 2005-09-06 04:31 PM

Medieval Bob 2005-09-06 04:35 PM

Got digital cable along with 512k dsl in a special package. Like, 3 controllers and that for so much, can't remember though.

Did your parents donate to the Red Cross?

Hades-Knight 2005-09-06 09:39 PM

I always wondered if cable internet was better than DSL internet...

!King_Amazon! 2005-09-06 10:03 PM

It is.

Kaneda 2005-09-07 01:00 AM

Why bother, they seem to be doing just fine looting everything.

We've got Satellite.

The regular package isn't too expensive, about a tenner a month. But if we want the film channels (which are packaged with Disney channel) then it costs another 15 quid a month.

Awww... :p

We get fine reception even in the most fierce of thunderstorms. Really gives atmosphere when you're watching one of those mad scientist films... :p

Wait a minute, if I comes before e except after c, then why is scientist and anything that is a variation of science spelt "cie"?

- Because there are always exceptions to the rules.

I'll have to wait and see if rain or snow affects my satelitte reception I guess.

Lenny 2005-09-07 02:38 PM

Be careful with winds. They can blow the satellite receiver thingy out of line. Happened with ours, we couldn't get anything for a week until Sky sent out a van and got it sorted.

We couldn't even get terrestrial because our aerial is buggered...
