Bees Knees

On a recent trip up north, the wife and I decided to stop by a café for afternoon snacks. As we sat there, sipping coffee and munching on cake, a gentleman from the table next to ours asked if we could spare him a few minutes so he could tell us all about Direct TV. I remembered seeing posters strewn all across town advertising DirecTV or DirectTV or whatever it was really called so I was really curious at that point so we agreed. Besides, to a guy, anything related to the letters T and V were always worth one’s time. He also seemed a decent enough person and was extremely polite in asking.

Direct TV, I learned, was simply a TV directly linked to the satellites that broadcast the feed distributed by cable TV companies. So by going direct or going SAT TV (Satellite TV), you “eliminate the middle man” and get access to TONS more channels. Sure, you may ask, “what do you need 500 channels for?” I tell you: you never know when you‘ll run out of stuff to watch, so it’s better to have channels in reserve.

The cost is a bit of a concern though, particularly the initial setup/installation fee. But in terms of value for money, the monthly fees are reasonable: you simply get more for what you pay for. Overall, this entire direct TV deal is quality stuff, but only if you think TV is better than sliced bread and you’ve got extra cash floating around.
