When television was first invented in the early 20th century, people could not have imagined how important it would become to most families. Better technology and more programming have made it a great source of both entertainment and information, especially for today's busy person. With Dish Network you can enjoy the best of nearly a century of television innovation with all the benefits of satellite TV and Dish Network's award-winning service.
If you are used to analog cable television, you will be surprised at the picture quality of Dish Network the first time you try it out. Because all Dish Network transmissions are in 100% digital format, you get great quality picture and sound. Though digital transmissions make standard definition programming very clear, you might want to choose HDTV if you are looking for the absolute best quality experience. With HDTV, the resolution is increased from about 200,000 pixels to almost 2 million- or about 10 times the resolution! This ensures an absolutely crystal clear picture with true-to-life color. HDTV also increases sound quality by using Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound (depending on the receiver model you choose). These systems bring great clarity to the sound and surround sound lets you feel as though you were in the middle of the action. Because you will surely want to watch as much programming as possible in HDTV format, Dish Network offers a wide array of HD programming with themes that include sports, movies, arts, games, cartoons, news, and education.
Along with improvements in actual television quality, innovators have brought new supporting technologies to the public. The DVR (Digital Video Receiver) is the best recent example and is offered on certain Dish Network receiver models. This device is designed to simplify the process of recording programming by being tied into an electronic program guide so all you have to do is select the correct program from the list and tell it to record. If you have ever missed an important program because you accidentally recorded the wrong channel or forgot a step when programming your VCR, you will love this technology. To make it even more convenient, you can even record two stations at once or record one program while watching another. Plus, with its 100 hours of storage capacity, you can store tons of shows without trying to create a video library. Of course, even if you choose a receiver without DVR, you will have access to other great features like the program guide, interactive TV, and parental control locks.
Dish Network not only brings the best technology to your TV, but also offers the most choices in programming to let you watch exactly what you want. If you are looking for standard definition entertainment, you will be able to choose from 10 package options plus plenty of extra channels. The America's Top 60, Top 120, and Top 180 are most people's favorite choice with plenty of fun and informative channels for the entire family. With both the 120 and 180 channel versions you also get to listen to the great radio available through SIRIUS satellite radio. If you want the most premium movie channels possible, you might consider America's Everything Pak, which combines the Top 180 with the Starz, HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax packages. Dish Network has also listened to the voices of the many foreign-language speakers in the nation and offers plenty of programming to suit their needs. Because Spanish is such a widely-spoken language, you can choose from 4 Spanish-language packages that combine 30 Spanish stations with up to over 200 English ones. Other Dish Network International programming includes Greek, German, Russian, Filipino, and Farsi.
If you find television an important part of your life, this is a great time to upgrade to Dish Network satellite service to let you take advantage all the new technology that can improve your viewing. Switch to the best. Start now.
