Nope, this is a first for us. We've had digital cable before. We got it in Morehead because I noticed that it would be five or ten dollars less per month to have the HBO package. (???) One of the main reasons we went ahead and switched was because we wanted to switch to DSL for the aforementioned reasons of our cable speeds sucking, and the prospective DSL provider (BellSouth) gives a discount if you subscribe to Directv, and we had also been talking about switching that service, so it just made sense to switch everything at once. Of course, when the installation was done and I talked to someone on the phone to verify the whole deal, they informed me that the rates I agreed to were going up two dollars a month starting next month, so that kind of annoyed me. It looks pretty neat so far.. though it annoys me to have to pay more per month to have two connected TVs.
