As time goes by, it would seem that consumer advocacy groups gain more and more ground and that the general buying public is able to better inform itself and therefore make smarter decisions when spending money.
These trends ultimately lead to more satisfied and contented consumers, people that are able to enjoy what they spend their money on because they know they've made a smart purchase and aren't being taken advantage of.
When it comes to home television services, modern consumers have demonstrated an overwhelming preference in recent years for satellite TV services over cable or other services, a fact which is very strongly mirrored in the last decade's worth of customer satisfaction ratings.
It would seem that today's viewers all agree that there is simply nothing more satisfying and rewarding when it comes to home television viewing than a satellite connection; yet what is the basis for this general consensus? What is it that drives consumers towards satellite services as opposed to cable? There are quite specific and solid reasons for these trends, and we would like to point out only a few of them here that happen to be the most representative and convincing of all (not by coincidence, of course): •Satellite TV subscribers are all aware that there is simply no beating what they get in terms of programming variety, which is one of the top considerations of modern home televisions viewers.
People are sick and tired of having dozens of different channels that look and feel the same as the rest, and are more interested than ever in getting a greater variety of programming content on their TV screen and particularly in getting more international programming options.
After all, this is the globalized age and that is beginning to be reflected in people's tastes; don't count on cable providers to realize that however! •Another area where satellite television just can't be beat is in the high definition department.
Satellite providers again have a very significant edge over their cable rivals, who in many cases don't manage to cobble together even half the amount of high def channels in their packages.
With satellite you'll be able to enjoy superior image quality across many different networks, and with well over 100 unique high def channels you're likely to end up watching more such channels than standard definition channels.
•Another area where satellite television simply cannot be beat is in the sports department.
Cable providers have decent packages here, but they are always limited to local and regional teams which means that anybody interested in following the entire league or following their hometown team after moving to another part of the country is just out of luck.
With satellite, you'll be guaranteed live coverage of all the games you are interested in practically no matter what thanks to the spectacular packages such as the NFL Sunday Ticket, the MLB Extra Innings package, or the NASCAR Hot Pass.
