The only drawback I ever had with satellite was the brief time I lived in Hell, er um, Mississippi, and my DirecTV suddenly became supplied by a "local" provider called Pegasus TV. And they were GOD-AWFUL!! Apparently, some parts of the country get their DirecTV directly from the DirecTV company, while other parts have their DirecTV provided through another company which is NOT owned or connected to DirecTV in any way. Pegasus TV was located in Maine, yet they provided DirecTV to Mississippi (go figure that one). They were NEVER in their offices and constantly billed us incorrectly and switched our coverage packages back and forth incorrectly (and at random, from what I could tell). Before that, when we lived in Iowa, we got our DirecTV directly from DirecTV, and they were super-marvelous to deal with.
Before getting DirecTV, check to see if your area is served directly by DirecTV or by a local provider.
