Fox does this every time their contract comes up… Happened w/ adelphia… they try to get the most advertising for sat companies… The sat companies give them monies to do this, if you notice they run info to call direct and dish if you want to continue to keep faux. ---

> [@evolve](#): > > the only thing holding me back from either sat company is a contract. can i get it without one? Yep. With Dish Network, the only thing you lose out on is getting a $49.99 activation fee back. (and a 30 day money back guarantee and dish insurance too, but you won’t miss either) You get all the same things that people who sign contracts get. EDIT: Joe beat me to it!! ---

> [@evolve](#): > > the only thing holding me back from either sat company is a contract. can i get it without one? DirecTV has a 1 year contract, but you can buy it out @$12.50 a month for the remaining months if you cancel. Not really a bad deal. Why would the contract worry you? ---

> [@01AudiS4](#): > > DirecTV has a 1 year contract, but you can buy it out @$12.50 a month for the remaining months if you cancel. Not really a bad deal. Why would the contract worry you? i have an apartment, not sure how long we are staying there. i think i like direct better in terms of programming and how its set up. (EDIT: but im really not a tv nerd so i really dont know) what i would be looking for is: 3 tv’s only 1 needs anything special (HD, dvr) a dual tuner or even triple tuner (if there is such a beast) would be needed. NEED MSG. other than that, the same channels i get right now with basic TW, maybe HBO/others depending on price. i will still most likely have to keep roadrunner, so price will be an issue. we dont watch a WHOLE lot of tv to really justify a big bill edit edit: speed tv would be a must if i am making any changes. ---

I can get you a dual tuner DVR and a single tuner Standard rec through Dish. Get a referral through Joe and let me know. EDIT: Did you mean you need a HD-DVR on one TV? ---

Yep with the Top 120 or higher, you will get all the Sabres games on MSG as well as regular Rangers/Knicks MSG. With the Top 180 you get the Verses station too. ---

We have Speed TV and MSG and VS’s on our base $44.99 package and your 2 extra tv’s (3 in total right?) would make a total price of $54.99. And as far as the HD DVR go’s we do have them but they have a waiting list for them, you could just get an HD receiver or just a DVR and get it without the wait. Also we are running a few promotions right now that would make the price even lower for the first year. ---
