I've had both dish and direct and currently with direct. Had comlink for a few months during construction last winter. I'll always have satelight over cable because of what lifer said....technology, format, and programing beats all cable available in my area  by a BUNCH. The outages are a very minor point and also very rare if the dish is pointed peoperly without obstructions.
