Satellite TV: Why It's A Better Choice

By Jansen Wilhelmsen


For many businesses, providing some type of television service is an important amenity. For instance, if you are the manager or owner of a senior housing community, this is an amenity that your residents expect. Hospitals and other types of care facilities also provide television services for their patients. For these types of businesses, having satellite TV service installed has many important advantages.

In general, satellite television is a less expensive option than cable television. This is because satellite companies aren't required to pay some of the local taxes that cable companies must pay. So while a basic cable package with just a few network channels might seem less expensive, when you start to add a greater variety of channels, there is a definite savings to be had with a satellite TV provider such as DirecTV.

While the lower cost is attractive enough, another reason to consider satellite over cable is the picture quality. Cable simply cannot provide the same high level picture quality that digital satellite TV provides. Certainly, cable companies offer quality high definition programming, but HD channels and sometimes even non-HD channels are simply better with a satellite system, which a fully digital experience. Just comparing quality and cost, satellite has a clear advantage.

Your patrons definitely expect the best possible TV programming, and satellite TV provides some channel options that cable does not and cannot provide. One special extra feature is the showing of East and West Coast versions of channels. In a few places, you can watch both versions of channels such as ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox, but you definitely can receive both versions of channels such as ESPN and other sports channels. In addition, satellite also provides a more interesting array of channels from around the country, which a local cable company might not be able to do. Also, satellite TV can be installed almost anywhere, and if cable TV can only be installed in areas where underground cable systems already are in place.
