And that's NOT because I have something against DirecTV, or hold a grudge for the many mistakes they've made with me over the years...
DirecTV is a good package... lots of programming, and I think very near the same $ as any other service. They're ok... nothing against them...
But that said, I don't watch it. I simply do not watch much TV, at all, and what I do watch really doesn't require DirecTV. As the media devices - like Roku, AppleTV, etc, grow in popularity I find them ever more close to providing me with anything I'm interested in watching. For example.. right now I'm very into the old Columbo episodes... my 10 yr old grandson has caught "Columbo" fever and he and I are watching one episode every day... on Netflix though AppleTV. That's more than I've watched TV, per day, than I have watched TV in the last... geez, 20 years probably.
