from:When you sign up for satellite Television service from Direct TV, you're getting a lot more than just a television service, you're taking part in a technological revolution. This revolution in communications technology has been ongoing since the Direct TV was founded back in 1994, with the express purpose of providing people all over the United States with high quality television programming delivered with the consistently high quality picture and sound that are inherent in a digital television signal.
Direct TV consistently offers larger programming packages than any of its competitors. For example, the economy package has over forty channels. The fact that it includes local network channels including CBS, ABC, FOX, PBS, and NBC affiliates means that it provides mainstream programming along with the local news coverage that can be so important when it comes to knowing what's going on in your community. There are also plenty of channels devoted to children's programming, general entertainment for the whole family, and religion.
Where you really see a big difference between Direct TV and its competitors though comes with its mainstream programming packages. Directv programming is superior to Cox Communications, Time Warner, Charter Communications, CableVision and other cable television providers. A great example of this is the entry level Total Choice package. Total Choice is very impressive as an entry level package because it has a huge selection of one hundred and fifty channels! That's more than the intermediate level packages of some of Direct TV's competitors! The Total Choice Plus programming package adds an additional thirty channels on to the Total Choice Package for one hundred and eighty five channels. The Total Choice Premier programming package adds another sixty five channels onto Total Choice Plus for a total of two hundred and fifty channels, making it the largest standard definition programming package currently offered anywhere!

Direct TV is an industry leader in High Definition Television, also referred to as HDTV for short. High Definition Television is a unique television format that's much different from the standard definition format that we're all used to. High Definition is distinguished by a much higher resolution and more detailed picture as well as the 16:9 aspect ration screen which provides a much wider view of the on screen action than standard definition television. Currently, there are seventeen high definition channels to choose from.
Direct TV also offers satellite receivers with built in Digital Video Recorders, or DVR's as they're known for short. Digital Video Recorders allow you to time shift you programming, so you can watch it when it's convenient for you rather than when it's convenient for the networks. DVR's do this by recording programming onto their high capacity hard disks. They're much more user friendly than the old fashioned VCR because they're easy to program with the help of special software and you won't have to deal with the inconveniences that are associated with video cassette tapes. A DVR also provides the added convenience of allowing you to pause and replay scenes while watching live TV! This can be a great benefit if you're in an environment when you're frequently distracted.
Direct TV has been revolutionizing television from the beginning and it will continue to do so in the years to come. This month there is a terrific FREE HDTV and DVR Promotion. Start today. Switch to the best.
