NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / April 20, 2017 / The biggest names in satellite TV in the United States are DirecTV and Dish Network. In an effort to help consumers trying to determine which satellite TV is best for their individual viewing needs, SatelliteWerx.com has published a concise side-by-side comparison table summarizing the latest offerings from satellite TV giants DirecTV and Dish Network.

While some satellite TV consumers fret over which one is the best for them and which provider has the best deals, eventually the elephant in the room may turn out to be the emergence of streaming, which could someday eliminate the need for a cable TV box or a satellite descrambler. But in the meantime, DirecTV and Dish Network are not only competing with each other to be the king of satellite TV, but these companies are also competing with cable TV providers for market share and customer reputation. This competition benefits consumers as both are trying to offer the best deals, the best features, and the best advanced features such as DVR and On Demand programming.

In the past satellite TV providers were not able to provide local channels. But that is the mostly past as now both DirecTV and Dish most always are able to satisfy customer demand for local channels as a standard feature. So, with either service, consumers are assured they can watch their favorite local news anchors delivering the local news. Also, satellite TV is winning the race when it comes to high definition TV because the latest technology and equipment behind satellite TV allows for extraordinarily clear high-resolution pictures. And, as satellite TV companies compete for subscribers, these providers want to make sure that installation is not a hurdle for potential costumers, so they send a technician who will install the dish, often free of charge.

One noteworthy difference between DirecTV and Dish Network is that AT&T now owns DirecTV. This means the company is able offer bundled deals that include Internet, and telephone services in addition to television programming with DirecTV. This works well for consumers who want an all-in-one solution for communication services. DirecTV has been able to offer a complete line-up of channels and does not have the history of carriage disputes with TV broadcasters that Dish has had in its earlier years.

While both offer similar tiered packages and premium networks their package offerings do vary. DirecTV's programming packages start with a bigger channel lineup. This can be a pro or a con, as a customer may not be interested in all channels, and DirecTV's starter packages are generally a little pricier than Dish's. Consumers interested in receiving programming from other languages besides English may consider Dish Network a compelling choice because Dish offers more foreign language channels than DirecTV. On the other hand, consumers who are big football fans often gravitate to DirecTV since DirecTV offers the immensely popular NFL Sunday Ticket, which is not available on Dish. Satellite TV providers are serious about competing with cable and are aggressive in competing with each other and that's good news for TV viewers.
