The definition of Irony.

It seems that this week the hot topic has been Cable, Cable Broadband, and DirecTV’s BPL plans.

As I mentioned in an earlier post today, I work for a cable/telecommunications provider based out of Northern Minnesota. The problem is I don’t live within our service area, I live in an area which USCable serves.

The internet service through USC has been great but the television service is mediocre at best and very overpriced compared to other providers in MN including the one I work for. I decided to go back to dish but this time I’m going with DirecTV. A few of my co-workers and friends all have recently switched to DirecTV in the last month or so and I’ve heard a lot of good things so I’m pretty excited to disconnect and get a dish.

With my new-ish HD LCD I’m looking into the HD content that DirecTV has to offer. I didn’t get an HD box off the bat, we just jumped into a standard service promo they had going but I may upgrade to an HD box in the coming months. I will have to settle for my locals and up-converted DVDs in High Def for the time being, which is more then sufficient… For now.
