Dish Network Offers More Channels at Better Prices
It’s no secret that Dish Network offers more channels at better prices than any other television service provider, but you may not be as familiar with the technology that it has to back it up. To begin, all of the programming delivered by Dish Network is completely digital. Digital television is highly resistant to interference. If there is any interference in the signal, special hardware and software in your receiver can clean it up before it reaches your screen. The result is a crystal clear picture and CD quality sound in all but the worst weather conditions. By contrast, cable television pictures can- and often do- look fuzzy regardless of what the weather is doing.
The digital signal that provides incredibly clear pictures and sound is only the beginning of the technological marvels that Dish Network can bring into your home. Every Dish Network satellite receiver comes with Electronic Program Guide Software. The Electronic Program Guide is the central feature of your Dish Network Experience. It displays a list of all of the programming available to you in the form of a table. You can scroll through the table to see what’s available on every channel and in every time slot up to 9 days in advance. The Electronic Program Guide can also tell you all of the information you need to make a decision about which show you want to watch, and it does it all while the video of the channel that you’re currently tuned to is displayed in the corner of the screen and the audio is still coming out the speakers so you don’t have to miss a thing while channel surfing! Parental Control Locks, which are part of Dish Network’s Electronic Program Guide, also let you block out programming that you don’t want your kids to see. You can base the locks on factors like channel, content, MPAA rating, or individual program, while retaining access to everything with the use of a simple password.
Dish Network can also give you hardware like a Digital Video Recorder to make watching TV more convenient. A Dishnetwork Digital Video Recorder, or DVR, replaces the no obsolete VCR in the role of recording shows that you aren’t around for in order to watch later. It’s easy to program using the Electronic Program Guide, can record up to two programs at the same time, and can store up to two hundred hours of programming on it’s hard drive so you don’t have to mess around with video tapes. As an added bonus, a DVR lets you pause and replay live TV so you’ll never miss an all important scene again!
With the amount of programming you can get from Dish Network, you’re going to appreciate all of this great technology. Programming packages range form the affordable 40 channel DishFamily to the unbeatable selection of America’s Everything Pak with 210 channels including four major movie packages. For people who don’t want to go to either extreme there are entertainment packages of 60, 120, and 180 channels too.
You can also order additional programming in order to customize any package. Seasonal Sports Subscriptions like MLB Extra Innings, ESPN GameDay, and NHL On the Ice are great additions for the serious sports fan. Dish Network can also provide foreign language programming in up to 19 languages. And recent movies, special events, adult entertainment, and sports are all available through Pay Per View.
Regardless of what you want from your television experience, Dish Network has the programming and technology that’s right for you!
