Dish Network Embodies Innovation
Dish Network is one of those rare companies that embodies the spirit of true American innovation. It's attracted the loyal allegiance of over 11 million subscribers, and won accolades and respect from the rest of the television industry. It's done this through a two pronged approach of providing entertainment packages designed to appeal to a variety of people and supplying it's subscribers with the best television technology currently available.
The technology that Dish Network utilizes has been truly impressive from the beginning. All Dish Network programming is delivered in one hundred percent digital format. This means that it's free of all but the worst interference for a crystal clear picture and great sound quality. Digital television also makes it easy for Dish Network to provide extra features along with the programming. For example, the Dish Interactive Electronic Program Guide displays all of the shows available to you in the form of a table just like you'd find in your local newspaper. Each cell in the table is occupied by a show and has information to help you decide whether or not you'd like to watch it. You can scroll up or down through the channels, or left or right to see different time slots. Some receiver models let you see what's scheduled to be on up to nine days in advance. Dish Interactive also brings you information about the weather along with online games that no analog signal can provide.
More advanced technology is also available. Dish Network can provide receivers that can sent two separate television signals to two TV's. This way one person can sit in the living room and watch one program, while someone else can sit in a bedroom and watch a completely different program without the added complication of having more than one receivDish Networker. This is accomplished by the remote that goes with the second TV operating on a UHF frequency which can not only penetrate walls, but is also very different from the IR frequency used by the one in the living room, so that the receiver doesn't confuse the two.
Digital Video Recording is also built into some Dish Network Receivers. Digital Video Recording lets you record the programs that you want to watch regardless of whether or not your home, so you can watch them when you want to. A Digital Video Recorder is far superior to a VCR because it doesn't use tapes and you can tell it what you want to record quickly and easily using the Dish Network's Electronic Program Guide.
Of course, Dish Network provides hundreds of channels of great programming so you have something to use all of this great technology for. Dish Network's entertainment packages range from hundreds of channels down to forty channels with plenty of options in between. America's Top 60, 120, and 180 Entertainment Packages provide a wide range of options for households with a range of needs and budgets. These entertainment packages feature great channels that the whole family will enjoy like ESPN, Animal Planet, the Sci-Fi Channel, the Speed Channel, American Movie Classics, TNT, the Independent Film Channel, the Discovery Channel, and many more.
Dish Network also provides HDTV packages that beat the competition in number of High Definition channels offered with it's entry level package and only improve form there.
No matter what entertainment package you decide to go with you can feel confident that you're getting the best service possible from an industry leader.
