Anyone recently move to Comcast from Direct TV?
I'm contemplating it.
I can get more channels and faster Internet than the U-Verse 6 Mbps connection from Comcast than what I pay for Direct TV alone.
I'd have to buy a Tivo setup though, maybe about $1200 for one of the new Roamio 6-tuner boxes and their Tivo Mini client with lifetime service for both.
But if Direct TV doesn't give me new equipment as well as discounts, over two years, I'd be spending about $1200 more with D* anyways.
I absolutely want to switch from U-verse to Comcast, at least for the data. But of course, the double play deals are better than just getting Internet from Comcast.
My concerns about Comcast are picture quality, and maybe loss of multiple HBO and Showtime channels. On Direct TV, of course they have East and West coast channels for both HBO and Showtime as well as things like HBO Zone, HBO Signature, HBO Comedy, etc.
