Direct TV Review

I've had DTV for about three years now.  On average I have video/audio issues every 3 months.  I resisted purchasing their service protection plan until recently.  Over the past 4 weeks I have lost picture and audio 1 or 2 times daily requiring the receiver to be re-booted.  After the initial 3 phone calls I finally consented to the service protection plan $6/month after I was told that any further issues would require a tech visit.  Next phone call the explanation was it was a faulty software issue and a tech would not be able to fix the issue.  I continue to have audio/video issues that require daily re-booting of receiver.  In retrospect I would not recommend DTV.  The faulty software issues combined with weather outages and loss of satellite signals make the increase price of cable worth it.
