I think DirecTV is the more popular, although I can't comment on channel selection and service since we never got the DISH system hooked up in the store to compare.

In my experience, as a fellow Dish and DirecTV retailer, I have found the channel lineups (Dish's Top 120 and DTV's Total Choice) to be almost identical between the two. I have seen the vast majority of my customers to go from cable to Dish or from DirecTV to Dish. I see customers go from Dish to DirecTV because they have very old systems on Dish, with maybe only one receiver, and would like additional receivers, for example. We sell Dish to DirecTV probably 10 to 1, because we have found the customer service on Dish Network to be superior to that of DirecTV.
