Hello Everyone

I'm planning to get either Digital Cable (Time Warner) or the Dish Network.

Both systems seem to offer similar price packages, so for me, the most important selling point would be picture quality. Now they say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, and that certainly applies to what I know about home electronics, so I'm hoping a reader can clear this up for me. I've heard that the Dish Network will give me better picture quality over non hdtv digital cable, but if both systems provide a digital signal, I'm just not sure how that's possible? I do know that my cable provider says they will already use the pre existing cable in my home, except that if I want a digital upgrade, I will need a new converter. Like I said, I'm pretty clueless about all this, so any information will be greatly appreciated. I've also heard the Dish Network has picture problems on cloudy days, but I've read other post from Dish Network subscribers that claim it takes extreme rain or cloud cover to cause any problems.

Ok I'm going to keep my fingers crossed, and hopfully I can get some good advice )

Thanks

I'd get Digital Cable if available, Direct TV and Dish Network both used Sattalites, so on rainny,clouny,or lighting days, you will have a problem. It cost more if you want more than 1 room to have it. I thinks its like 8.99-12.99 for each TV. Then if you only have 1 sattalite, you have to watch the same channel on every TV in the house. If you want different channels, you need more than 1 sattalite. If you get direct Tv, you can get free ppv and everything, including premium channels with the illeagal access card.

All on my data might not be correct, some of it might have been changed, im getting most of it off the top of my mind, but I use digital cable.
