While many people in Nevada embrace cable television as their primary source for video entertainment, a large and growing group of people enjoy satellite television. Satellite TV provides many of the same great services as cable, such as a large variety of channels in various packages and competitive pricing. Satellite also has additional options like high-definition (HD) upgrades, digital video recorder (DVR) devices to capture your favorite shows and movies and keep them until ready to be viewed, and great pay-per-view and On-Demand services to bring superb entertainment straight into your home. Because satellite TV requires no network of cables it becomes the ideal choice for people in rural Nevada. Although the initial cost may be higher because of the equipment needed, many still believe it to be a great source for video entertainment.
There are two major companies offering satellite television service to Nevada Dish Network and DirectTV. Below you can find comparative pricing between the two, as well as related information and news articles.

There are only a few benefits to cable over satellite. Mainly that is that you won't lose your signal in heavy weather. After that Directv and Dish have either similiar or superior programming at what is usually a lower price. Of course if you have the benefit of competition between providers in your area then you can get much better deals than the rest of us.
