If you have cable in the United States, get rid of it. Get a satellite--either DirecTV or Dish. They're better, for one thing: more channels, more options, and you'll never have a moment where the satellite is out. The real reason to get satellite, however, is LinkTV. I've written about this channel in the past, but let me reemphasize: LinkTV is just about the only way most Americans can find out what is happening in the rest of the world--and, really, in our own country. Don't believe me? Just visit their web site and judge for yourself. End of hype.
