Luis Oct 02, 2005 01:31 PM

Hi
I have time warner cable but looking into direct tv or sattelite due to Animal planet.
I only get National geographic channel and discovery channel as far as animal type channels go but wanted animal planet to.
If you have either of the above are you happy with reception,service,etc and ofcourse do you get animal planet ?
Thanks
Luis

We have Direct and get Animal planet aswell as a wide variety of movie Channels. The bad news is...Every time there is rain we lose reception for the duration of the storm. Every hurricane has meant at lest 2-4 days without TV. They have to send someone to fix the dish.

Thanks for the info. Thats what I was afraid of ESP since in winter it snows here and some days high winds.

My parents have direct tv, and everytime I go over to their house, the dish is out. You can't watch entire movies because the screen will scatter up. My bf works for the cable company, so we have digital. I like it so much better.

Thanks I am going to stick with cable to bad because direct tv you can add extra channels for $4 . With cable to add Animal planet its $60 more (2 tvs)a month because you get many other movie channels with it but all I wanted was Animal planet.
Oh well I will have to make due with National geographic and Discovery channel.
Thanks
