Dish TV and Dish Network are the same thing. They're both from EchoStar Communications. Dish and Direct are both digital satilite subscription TV systems. Generally Direct TV is a little heavier in sports, and Dish is a little heavier in drama and movies. I went with Dish because I like movies. Also Dish bought the failed Voom satilite systems, which gave them more high definition channels. But I have friends who have Direct TV and they are very happy with it. You can do all your research on the web on these two companies easily enough.

they are all different types of satillite television services. The only difference between the three are the channel numbers and probably there prices. and all the tv infocomes from a satillite dish instead of a cable buried in the ground.
