DIRECTV HD Set to Have Another Amazing Year

Boeing delivers DIRECTV 11, giving DIRECTV the ability for 150 National HD channels and an additional 1,500 local channels.

This is amazing news for anyone who has been following the race for High Definition.  The delivery of this new satellite is proof-positive that DIRECTV’s focus on being the only choice for HD remains priority number one.  The DIRECTV 11 satellite (scheduled to be launched in March 2008) combined with DIRECTV 10 that was launched in 2007 will bring the total HD capacity to 150 channels and an amazing 1,500 local channels.  DIRECTV has already secured its mark as the industry leader in high definition programming as the Dish Network and cable struggle to keep up.  Once the DIRECTV 11 satellite begins its transmissions, the flood gates will open for new local markets and more HD choices.  All that money we are spending on these great high definition televisions will pay off in 2008 (assuming you are a DIRECTV HD subscriber).  If you have an eye for quality and want the best out of your HDTV then you need to make sure you have as many HD channels as possible.  DIRECTV is definately listening to us and giving us what we want - the most HD choices available anywhere.  DIRECTV also took care of its subscribers last week by dropping the price of the  DIRECTV HD DVR by $100.
