The battle between satellite tv and cable tv seems to have no ending. One will say that they are the best while the other one will disagree. We have been hearing this over and over again, but it seems like satellite tv has it victory for most of the consumers. We know about the switching from cable tv to satellite tv, but there are these myths regarding satellite tv that are everywhere. Do wee need to agree on these myths?

Here are the top 10 myths of satellite tv:

Myth One:
The price of satellite tv is so expensive. This is absolutely not true because anyone can have his satellite tv with a very little amount. If we based on channel-by-channel comparison, cable tv is very way behind. Plus, you can have your satellite tv as low as $20 a month depending on what package you want to purchase.

Myth Two:
The picture is not good when its raining. This is a false belief. If your satellite tv is properly installed then you will have your picture perfect TV. It is still good to let you satellite tv providers expert team to install your system.

Myth Three:
Satellite tv is free whereas it is not. This is not true and there is just a misconception with that. The statement “satellite tv for free” does not necessarily mean that you have it for free. This statement simply means that you have your the free satellite system, which includes one or up to four satellite signal encoders, one satellite dish, and a satellite tv authorization card and they're for free.

Myth Four:
Expensive installation. Absolutely not true. How could this happen if all satellite tv providers offer free installation of the system?

Myth Five:
You can not upgrade on HDTV. This is not true too. Satellite tv providers such as Dish Network and DirecTV offer a free upgrade to those who are who never subscribe to satellite TV service before.

Myth Six:
Separate satellite receiver for every tv. This is also no true. Actually you can have a receiver that can run two televisions and each tuned to a different channel. You can also record your favorite shows with a receiver 5200 model.

Myth Seven:
The repair cost is too expensive. Again, this is not true. In provider such as Dish Network if you sign up for an 18-month agreement, this will give you a Dish Home Protection Plan and that is for free. And it will offer you a 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week technical support.

Myth Eight:
Satellite tv providers don't have its In-Home Service. There are times when the technical support can not give you an answer or can not solve your problem, but you don't need to worry. Just drop a call to your satellite provider and they will schedule an appointment at a time that’s convenient for you. An authorized technician will come to you with a small fee to fix your problem.

Myth Nine:
You can not have a Free Movers Program with satellite tv. Satellite tv providers such as Dish Network offer a free of charge movers program. You just take your existing receivers, and they will professionally install them in your new home.

Myth Ten:
Satellite tv offers limited channels. This my friend is absolutely not true. With your satellite tv, you can have up to 200 to 300 channels for you to enjoy.

The Satellite TV Invasion

Choosing between satellite tv and cable tv created a dilemma to many consumers. While some stick to their cables, many switched to satellite tv. What made people switched are the benefits of choosing satellite tv. Those benefits that they can have which they haven't had with cable tv.

Many would say that satellite tv is a better choice. One of the reasons to be considered is being cost effective to everyone, a lot cheaper. If you can have your HDTV with cable tv, you can still get HDTV with a satellite tv connection. The picture quality is sure to be better than that of cable. Satellite dish will need to be mounted on the outside of your house and will require a clear and unobstructed view of the southern sky. It is best to let the provider's experts to install the system.

Even if the picture quality can degrade during times of heavy rain or heavy snow, this problem can be resolved for the most part by opting for a larger satellite dish, which will be more efficient at capturing the signals. Satellite tv offers the best quality in programming, digitally delivered crystal-clear high definition imaging, and digital sound. Providers also have their own gimmicks and promos to their costumers. Just like with Dish Network which give gifts to new customers with a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) to further enhance home entertainment systems. And the only payment is for your choice in programming services, and many times, this is cheaper than those provided by cable. The major satellite TV providers, Dish Network and DirecTV, also offer free installation in up to 4 rooms of your home. During their respective promos, you can also get about 3 free months of movie channels and sports channels to see if you like them. The provider is of course hoping you will like them and upgrade your account to include those channels.

Another best thing with regards to switching to satellite tv is the number of channels that you will surely enjoy. You will have a chance to get all the channels in one package, because the satellite dish that you have installed on or near your home is able to pick up many channels that your cable TV provider can’t offer you. You can record programs with the DVR or with your VCR. And lets you block your children from viewing programs you feel are unsuitable for them.

What else can you ask for? Satellite tv may not used by all people but for sure it will invade every consumer, not today but in the near future. The invasion has just started.

So I read Syd's post today about her new satellite tv. Actually she's right i was the one who invited her and encourage her to buy and try one. I am a movie fan just like her. That is one of the reasons why i decided to have my own satellite tv. I love satellite tv because of the benefits and offers it gives me.

Years ago i was struggling watching my favorite shows. Before, I have to go home early just to catch up my favorite program and hoping to watch again my favorite movies. Things are different now, because of satellite tv.

When Syd decided to purchase one and finally had it installed, she hurriedly called me and said "You don't believe this! I'm loving it! I love this!" and she was very excited and of course happy. I guess she bought her own on http://www.satelliteusa.com and their current product called the Dish DVR Advantage. She actually invited me to her house one time and well, i like the one she purchased! Damn! How can i envy her! haha

I'm thinking, what if i will buy and change mine. I personally checked the website and found out that they have coolest offers.

Check their website and check it too... http://www.satelliteusa.com
