First topic message reminder :
Hello everyone, I wanted to know if Satellite TV is better then Cable TV, if so why? If not why? I know one is cheaper, but are there any other advantages?

Satellite signals have always been affected by weather.

Not really anymore though, I have seen it my own 2 eyes, they have stronger dishes to minimize affects.

@bgradio does have a point. When was the last time you had satellite tv?

The way I see it, everyone is different and are free to have whatever TV setup they like (and can afford).

cable is much easier to set up, Satellite is a pain with all the issues that come with it

It is good for the cheaper price you pay.

cable is much easier to install, as it's plug and play

The way I see it, satellite TV is good for racing and other sporting events but isn't the best for tech support (on account if the fact that one needs a separate signal decoder for each TV set).

weather patterns affect satellite like crazy, which can mean no signals for a whole week, or more.

Yes that is usually the second way they try to win you over their competitors (besides their low prices). They try to aim for the sports fans.

cable has less costs, and does not need any special equipment, it's all just plug and play

Some people find the cheaper price worth it though.

Yeah, sometimes, but so does cable. Sattelite providers atleast provide more channels that aren't available on cable though. Specificly a lot more sports channels. To sports fans those are worth the money in themselves.

the local channels are what most people watch on the old antenna, or rabbit ears, or when they do not have a cable or Satellite hookup
