Reasons Why Satellite TV Is A Better Choice

By Jansen Wilhelmsen


For most businesses, it is important to provide some type of television service. This is especially important if you have the type of business where hospitality is a centerpiece. Guests at many restaurants and bars enjoy TV service, and of course, residents at nursing homes or senior housing expect to have this as one of their amenities. Even hospital patients greatly appreciate quality TV. When selecting a service, consider opting for satellite TV, which has several advantages.

It might surprise you to learn that cable TV actually tends to cost more per month than satellite television. As there are no underground cable systems to maintain and satellite providers also do not have to pay some local fees and taxes, their rates can be lower. You might find that a very basic package is a bit less or equal to the cost of satellite, but once you begin to provide a good variety of channels, DirecTV definitely has the edge on pricing.

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.
