DISH has a solid channel lineup and excellent DVR features. But satellites are vulnerable to extreme weather outages compared to a cable provider. If you live in better climate, DISH could be worth your consideration.

DISH Features
Hopper 3 DVR. This DVR can store up to 2,000 hours of HD programming and record 16 shows at once. In comparison, the DIRECTV DVR only holds 200 hours of programming and can record just five shows at once. With the DISH app and HopperGo, you can even access any On Demand or recorded program from your mobile devices. Price: $15/mo.
Four TV packages. New customers get to choose a package from $60 to $90 a month with a two-year price guarantee. DIRECTV offers cheaper packages, but their rates dramatically increase unless you bundle with qualified AT&T services.
Premium channels free for three months. When you sign up with DISH, you get three months of free premium channels, including Cinemax, HBO and Showtime. But remember to cancel the subscription after three months, or you’ll get charged for it after the trial ends.
Loads of sports. DISH offers ESPN in all packages, NFL Network in three out of four packages. Two packages also include MLB Network, NBA TV and the NHL Network.
Built-in TV apps. Streaming apps – Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Pandora, The Weather Channel and more – are built into the Hopper 3 DVR.
Excellent customer service. DISH is consistently ranked in the top TV providers for customer service by J.D. Power and the American Customer Satisfaction Index.
Bottom Line
DISH is best for people who want to record a lot of shows and hardcore sports fans. However, it’s not the best solution for those who live in apartments or in areas with severe weather conditions.
