Most cable companies are very poor at giving customers plenty of choices.  This extends to both the number of channels available and the types of programming packages.  A typical cable TV provider, for instance, may offer 3 or so programming packages to choose from.  If you don’t find any right for your household, you are out of luck.  Dish Network, on the other hand, has over a dozen packages.  You are much more likely to find the right package from this large number of choices than from a meager cable TV selection.Of course, you will also find more specialty options through Dishnetwork satellite TV.
