DIRECTV vs DISH Deals: Side-by-side Comparison

If you’re evenly split between DIRECTV and DISH, often, the deciding factor comes down to which provider is offering the best deal. There’s plenty of (sometimes intentionally) confusing claims made via TV, radio and print, so we decided to compare each of the most important categories side-by-side. New specials are released about 3 times a year and we’ll be updating the table below to keep pace.

Keep in mind DIRECTV and DISH have slightly different ways of defining their specs and accounting for total channels, so we’ll be normalizing the data wherever possible. Finally, a box with a yellow background means that provider has a definite advantage. Otherwise, an average customer will essentially get the same value (depending on your needs, you may have a preference, however).
