Great rivalries define sports. There’s nothing more exciting than watching the end of a season tick down as two great franchises battle for the top spot. This summer, baseball is at the forefront of everyone’s mind, as the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox engage in their annual race for the American League pennant.
Most people’s loyalties lie in the city of their birth. Since the Sox took home their first championship since the beginning of the century in 2004, their popularity has literally exploded, with fans across the United States (and the world) hopping on the bandwagon to watch this exciting group of players.
How can these new additions to the Sox nation from afar catch all of the action? With DIRECTV and a high definition television, the action is even more vivid than if you were sitting right there in Fenway, or even one of the premium spots at the new Yankees Stadium.
What about Yankees fans living outside of Gotham? DIRECTV offers the MLB EXTRA INNINGS package that is loaded with all the action packed games this summer. If you are a subscriber to MLB EXTRA INNINGS you also have the capability to add on the SuperFan package where all games are available in HD. You will be able to catch up to 60 games a week of all the great rivalries no matter where you are located. Plus, it is a whole lot cheaper than than the prime seats behind the dugout.
July is going to turn into August, and before you know it the last games of the season will be looming close behind in September. Stay up to day with all of the action today with the DIRECTV. There’s no better way to keep up with the standings as the Bronx Bombers and the Sox struggle to stay atop the AL East on the long campaign towards winning the World Series.

Isn’t it amazing how the price of movie theater tickets continues to skyrocket? Unless you can somehow sneak your whole family into the matinee, you look at paying almost 50 dollars for the average crew. And that’s before the popcorn and soda. When you finally pull out your wallet for those phenomenal Junior Mints, it will likely be a few shades lighter. For the price of a couple of outings to the local multiplex, you can enjoy a full month of the great movies if you have DIRECTV.
DIRECT TV Satellite TV offers movie channels with a wide range of programming that gives everyone plenty of choices. With channels including HBO, The Movie Channel, Showtime, and Turner Classics, there is always a great movie available to watch.
There are other advantages to skipping the movie theater this summer. Who can’t relate to getting to the theater a few minutes late, only to find out that your show’s been sold out? There’s nothing more frustrating than watching the last ticket sell to the person in front of you. Enjoying movies from the cold comfort of your own air-conditioned home can be much more convenient and comfortable than to traveling all the way out to the theater.
Plus, a satellite TV package can give you way more choices than your local movie theater has to offer. Some of the biggest multiplex theaters have only 10 or 15 screens. Even if you quadruple that amount, and you can find a greater number of channels from satellite tv to make a selection.
Finally, you would be wise to remember that some of the big electronic manufacturers have lowered their prices from many of the summer sales. This includes the prices of home stereo equipment and HD TV sets. If you play your cards right, you could end up with a television and sound system in your home that blows any movie theater away!

As the era of analog comes to a close, and the all-digital world of television takes over, DIRECTV customers can rest assured knowing their signal has been all-digital all the time. That’s just one of several huge advantages of having DIRECTV satellite television this summer.

DIRECTV has surpassed all major cable TV companies by earning the highest scores in customer satisfaction according to the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI). Customers were surveyed on issues such as customer loyalty, perceived value and their expectations prior to subscribing to the service. DIRECTV outperformed all other companies within the industry, posting an index score of 71. This exceeded all other companies tested, which received on average an index score of 6 3. DIRECTV improved its position from last year’s survey by three points. This marks the ninth straight year the nation’s number one satellite television service has landed the number one position.
Executive vice president of Operations for DIRECTV, Mike Palkovic, states, “While we improved our position within the survey this year, we will continue to stay vigilant on improving all facets of the overall customer experience to further distance ourselves from the competition.”
DIRECTV scored five points higher than Cox Communications, 12 points higher than Comcast and Time Warner and 20 points higher than Charter Communications. DIRECTV also had one of the highest scores in the overall communications sector, which includes phone and wireless providers.
The ACSI was first compiled in 1994 at the National Quality Research Center (NQRC) in the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan. In the first quarter of each year ASCI administers a survey measuring customer satisfaction with the quality of products and services in multiple industries; including utilities, transportation and warehousing, information, health care and social assistance, and accommodation and food services. Today, it is produced by the NQRC in partnership with the American Society for Quality (ASQ) and the international consulting firm, the CFI Group.

There’s just no doubting it: DIRECTV gives people so much more to choose from than any other provider, whether satellite TV or cable services. No other company has as many exclusive packages, channels, lineup variety, and these are precisely the qualities that have made it so incredibly successful in the national (and international) marketplace. In fact, in neighborhoods all over the country, it’s conspicuous how many new houses have a dish on their roof with the DIRECTV logo on it; a tangible, measurable sign of just how great the service being offered really is.DIRECTV is all about more, more, more. More quality, more variety, more exclusivity, and more customer loyalty, too. More action, more romance, more adventure, and more movies on DIRECTV are only some of the many great reasons that each year there are so many converts to this exceptional service. Every genre is represented, and not just with a token show or movie, but with scores of channels practically exclusively dedicated to that particular taste. Love movies in general? Well then you’ll be happier than a pig in mud with the fact that you get HBO, Starz, Showtime, TMC, and a whole host of other channels that only play movies. Love action? You’ll be blown away by channels like Spike or AXN that cater particularly to that taste. Love adventure? Well, you’ll be delighted with the superior programming to be had on channels like the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, the Science Channel, and many more that help viewers explore our natural world and beyond in ways that will simply take your breath away—anybody that has seen the mini-series Planet Earth on Discovery Channel knows what this is all about.In fact, DIRECTV packages also bring you more sports than any other provider. More live games than you could ever imagine, from more parts of the country than any other provider offers. And the vast majority of it is all brought to you in stunning HD quality, which makes it all that much more exciting to watch. Add on to all these great aspects the fact that you can use interactive channels to watch up to eight games at the same time, live, or also get “Big Play” alerts and follow the stats of your favorite players, and you’ve got a package that exceeds all possible expectations. And how it does!
So, if you are looking to get more out of your television service, then stopping fooling around with providers that only offer you less, and become part of the community that has it all ( it sure is hard to have more than that). All your hankerings will be satiated and you will find yourself immersed in a universe of television options you never had even imagined existed before, all of a quality that simply cannot be equaled by any other player on the market.
