Very True about the sunspots, but Cable unlike the new DSS system does not suffer from MPEG compression and while the DSS satellite says they have 150 channels I'm really not convinvced on the unit since I'd have to shell out $700 for the Sat Dish and Decoder plus $35 a month for full service. I guess I'll really have to go see a demo of it myself before I form a real opinion but currently I can't see switching over to the DSS system simply on the basis of COST. Would ya happen to know where I can get a list of the 150 channels that DSS is supposed to pickup? Also is there a Basic set of channels the DSS Dish will pick up even if you decide NOT to subscribe to the full $30 or $35 package? It's definitely a wait and see deal for me, now if I were to move from Brooklyn to the Catskills or Pennsylvania where I might not be able to get the type of Cable Service I get here I'd probably JUMP on the DSS system in a hot second.(I AM considering moving once I'm married to either Penn. or the Catskills) Memeber of AMP Midgard Graphics
