I've had both direct and dish.  Currently with direct for about 4 years now and love it.  Left them for 24 hours in the spring and went back to charter because I needed Internet.  Hated every minute of the 24 hours.  But when I called to cancel direct they made me a really sweet couldn't turn down offer.  I Rarely loose service due to weather and when I do it is only for very short periods. I watch almost everything except news on DVD so the outages don't bother me. I rarely watch weather except from the porch or out the window but if I do check it I use my phone. Directs technology is head and shoulders above  cable in the lake area. Using the double play feature you can watch two live broadcasts simultaneously and not miss a minute of either show. This feature is not just a split screen.  You can pause one and come back k and pick up right where you stopped.  I've used this feature during live breaking news a few times.  Allows me to get two perspectives on the same event. 

One kudo I will give charter is they finally fired the fat ugly biatch that worked the counter at the AC office. They still have inferior service and product but at least you don't have to deal with FUB anymore.  I hate that Tony Goss dropped out of the mayors race as he was working very hard to bring competition to charter in AC.  Nobody else seems to care.

P. 'S. ,  if you go with direct  you can contact me and I will give you a code that saves us both $100.
