Buyers Checklist


Before you give cable the heave-ho, make sure you're buying the best satellite system. Print out this screen and take it with you when you visit a retailer.

1. Does this system have the greatest programming choice so that everyone in my family will have the channels they want to watch?

2. Which system gives me the best movie selection with my favorite movie channels like multiple channels of HBO®, HBO Family®, Showtime®, Cinemax® and The Movie ChannelTM, and 55 pay-per-view options?

3. Which system offers the best sports packages from the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, college sports and boxing?

4. Will I be held captive by one programming provider or will there be more -- for better choice, service and competitive pricing?

5. Will its digital technology deliver laser-disc quality picture and CD-quality sound to my normal TV?

6. Are leading manufacturers like RCA and SONY making the system so it won't become obsolete? Does the equipment include a warranty?

7. Will this system be compatible with watching local stations from an antenna or "lifeline" cable service?

8. Does this system have a Locks and Limits feature so that I can control what my kids watch?

9. Does it have the easiest and most user-friendly on-screen guide with favorite channel settings and pay-per-view ordering via remote control?

10. Can I install the system myself? Is the system easy to hook-up to different TVs throughout my home?

11. Do I live and plan to use this system within the continental United States or Alaska?
