Used to have Direct and got tired of the annual price increase drill.

Step 1) Get pestering phone calls to change your package for 3-5 months for FREE to include all of the movie channels

Step 2) Promotion runs out and you want to go back to your old package, but it's now $5 / month more expensive than it used to be

Step 3) Start refusing the free package change calls and watch the calls just keep...on...coming.

Plus, with Direct I can't use my Tivo Bolt...which is giving up a lot because it's so much better than any of their DVR tech.
