Well now that I’ve moved into my own place, I decided to go back to TWC… Honestly wish I just said fuck it and signed the 2 year lease with DirecTV which we got at my parents place last year. Signing a 2 year contract was the only thing keeping me from doing it, not that it matters I can take it wherever I go. Honestly I like what you get from DirecTV price wise vs what you get with TWC. Also HD on DirecTV looks 10x better than TWC, TWC compresses the shit out of their HD, which well they kind of have to for bandwidth reasons. Either way ruins big action sequences hardcore. And before anyone starts in with the same BS TWC says about dropped signals etc… Honestly in the year we’ve had it, weve lost signal maybe 3 times, all during bad storms and dident drop for more than a minute. Plus DirecTV has sprout, which TWC does not, and my daughter loves sprout. May get DirecTV here soon. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/somebody-help-me-with-my-damn-cablebox/253775)._
