Why DIRECTV® Service?

If your decision comes down to a choice between DIRECTV® service and standard cable TV, the answer is clear.

DIRECTV Delivers a Huge Variety, Plus Exclusive Sports Programming

With DIRECTV, you get a huge variety of programming. Choose the DIRECTV PREMIER™ Package and get over 265 all-digital channels including 31 premium movie channels from HBO®, Cinemax®, SHOWTIME® and Starz®, 35 regional and specialty sports networks, and over 65 music only channels. DIRECTV is also the only provider to offer NFL SUNDAY TICKET™. You can't get that on cable.

DIRECTV Has Digital Picture Quality and High Reliability

DIRECTV delivers a crystal clear digital signal 99.96% of the time. And with 100% all-digital channels, you can't beat the picture quality.

DIRECTV Delivers Higher Customer Satisfaction than Cable TV

DIRECTV has had a higher customer satisfaction rating than the largest U.S. cable television providers for 8 years running. We didn't say that, the University of Michigan Business School did in their 2008 American Customer Satisfaction Index. Get DIRECTV and be happy.

DIRECTV Delivers Local Channels1—Just as You'd Expect

DIRECTV offers local channels to nearly 94% of U.S. households. Even if you're not in the 94%, it's likely that you could get local channels with the simple addition of an off-air antenna or via Distant Network signals from DIRECTV if you qualify.

DIRECTV vs. Cable—There is no comparison.
