You guys are making me think about switching from DirecTV to Dish. I've been a DirecTV customer since the first year the service was available and have watched the prices skyrocket while their customer service crashed and burned. I was really hoping when AT&T bought them their customer services would change but so far there has been no noticeable effect, except for continued price increases.
Does anyone know if I can get DISH for a month or so without a contract (albeit at a higher price I'm sure) and then switch to a 24 month contract if I decide to keep it? I don't mind paying for both DirectTV and Dish if it's only for a few months. The DVR recording problem mention earlier does concern me though.
Also, does anyone know if you can subscribe to "out of market" local channels? I'd like to buy the local Houston and Dallas channels since the local market channels here are near worthless.
