Alaska DirecTV Takes On All Competitors
There is a very competitive war going on between all the television entertainment providers. The war is mainly between Cable TV and Satellite TV providers, and Satellite provider DirecTV is winning more and more battles every day. Its first year of operation ended with 320,000 customers. Today, they have over 16 million customers and are expected to add nearly a million more by year's end. How are they doing this? One way is because of all the advantages that Satellite Television holds over Cable Television. The other way is through all the very enticing deals being offered to new customers.
Cable Technology In Alaska Is Losing Ground
There was a time not too long ago when Cable Television providers held several advantages over Satellite providers. That is no longer the case because of the technological innovations of companies like DirecTV. Cable in Alaska used to be the only provider that offered local channels. Now, Alaska DirecTV offers local channels and is even offering local channels in High Definition. Cable also used to be the only television provider with high-speed Internet service. Not anymore, though. Direct TV now offers high-speed Satellite Internet service. They are even able to offer it to very rural areas where there is no Cable service available and a slow dialup connection is the only option. One great ability of Satelite TV that Cable will never be able to offer is taking your television service on vacation with you. Because Alaska Direct TV dishes are small and compact, more and more people are mounting them to the side of their RVs and boats so they don't miss their favorite show while on vacation. The other bonus with this is that people can keep up with weather conditions to alter their travel plans if necessary.
New Alaska Customers = Free Equipment
The other way Direct TV is taking customers away from Cable TV is through the deals that new customers receive for signing up. First off, by signing up you don't have to buy any Satelite equipment. Then, you get that equipment installed by professional technicians for free.
4-Room Systems For Free
Becoming a new Alaska subscriber also comes with the bonus offer of getting free installation of a 4-Room System. You will want this if you've been battling family members or housemates for control of the remote control. A 4-Room System means getting four receivers installed in four different rooms of your house. The remote control battles are over because you just go to your own room and watch what you want.
How About Receiver Upgrades For Free?
New Subscribers even get free Satelite receiver upgrades. You have a choice of either a HD receiver or a DVR receiver. The HD, or High Definition, receiver is the perfect companion for the High Definition TV you own or are planning to buy. There are a lot of HD channels now that you won't be able to fully appreciate without a HD receiver. The DVR, or Digital Video Recorder, receiver boasts a lot state-of-the-art functions. It can digitally record and store up to 100 hours of programs. Program it to record the entire season of your favorite show. It can even record two shows at once. DVR receivers can also pause and rewind live television.
Better Customer Service Than Cable Providers
Usually when people are deciding whether to buy a product the most important factor is how current users rate that product. For several years, Alaska Satelite provider Direct TV has been ranked ahead of all Cable providers when it comes to Customer Service. Combine that with all the other factors mentioned above and your decision may get easier.
