Dish Network vs Direct TV: Package
What do I mean by “package” — and why is it such an important point of comparison between the Dish Network vs Direct TV? Your package is simply the bundle of services that you have or will be purchasing from one of these companies. Typically these packages will specify the total number, as well as the types of channels you will be able to receive. Your package specifications may also include specific equipment such as your satellite dish itself, the receiver, remote controls, etc. When comparing these packages across companies, you need to be very sure that you do not become overly influenced by an introductory rate which will soon expire — make your point of comparison the actual monthly charge that you will pay, once the introductory period is over.
