Ok allow me to answer the questions in more detail than the rest.
1- English channels without satellite - Nile TV & some programs on channel 2. If u watch tv a lot, cable is a must.
2- English channels on satellite? I would have to recommend cable tv not satellite. Satellite has only 2 English channels worth watching (MBC2 & MBC4)
A- Show Time: Movie Channel 1 & 2, TV land, Paramount, CNN, BBC, Discovery, MTV, VH1. I will provide u with the Show Time local site for reference. Expect to pay L.E 150-200 per month depending on your channel selection
B- Orbit - ESPN, MGM, America Plus, Super Movies, Cinema City, Super Comedy, FTV. Again, I am including a link to their site.A little cheaper, should be in the range of L.E 120-180 per mont
C- ART - America channel, Movies America. The cheapest starts from L.E 45
My own personal recommendation is Show Time, has the more movies, best sit coms and movies. Both ART & Show Time decoders give you free access to Nile Sat, which will again provide you with several English channels for free.
2- So, how much will it cost you? if you pay a 1 year subscription, then you do not have to pay much extra. LE300 if you pay 1 year subscription in Show Time along of course with the monthly subscription fees. If you go for a monthly fee, then expect to pay around L.E900.
3- ADSL : Pricing is fixed. L.E 95 for a 256k, L.E 285 for 512k. I am attaching the site for one of the big ADSL service providers.
Great, hope that answers your questions.
Cheers

English channels without satellite only Nile TV
English channels with satellite, too much to enumerate according to the satellite chosen
you've already got answers for the rest of your questions
