Help...Cablevision vs.Directv?....

I live in Central NJ. I currently have Directv. But, have noticed that IO Cable(cablevision) is offering most of the same channels (incl.HD channels) for a little cheaper. Can anyone help me with what the differences are between the two now? What people still prefer?
Thanks!


Bring back John Doe! Or at least resolve the cliff-hanger with a 2hr movie or as an extra on a dvd release.

I live in Central Pa and Service Electric Cablevision is better and cheaper than DirecTV. Not including premium channels like HBO, Cinemax etc., I get 16 HD channels with more being planned to be offered in the near future. I get 131 channels plus over 40 music channels plus the 16 HD channels.
A local DirecTV installer now has switched to promoting cable because it is better than what he was selling from satellites!

I can't say anything about IO Cable, but if it is similar to Service Electric, I would choose the cable.

Hmmm, Cablevision vs. DirectTV.
Looks like DirectTV by a landslide.
