Default Thinking about switching to Direct TV - any thoughts?
I've rummaged through a few old threads, and done a fair amount of searching on other more HDTV-oriented forums.

Does sattelite actually have better image quality than cable? I've read elsewhere that it's highly dependent on your area, even among users of the same cable company, as well as specific content (I've definitely noticed different channels/shows being better/worse than others).

From what I can tell it'd save me about $300 the first year, then be about the same price as what I'm currently paying Comcast ($77). I don't really care about all the extra channels satellite may provide.

The kicker for me, and reason I haven't already just switched, is giving up my Tivo Premiere. You'd almost have to pry that thing out of my cold, dead fingers. I've read very unfavorable things from former Premiere owners about Direct TV's DVR's (including the one they slapped Tivo software on).

Any input?
