I currently have Directv love it except for the price. I also have ATT DLS and phone service. I have been reading up on U-verse and I like the way way better internet speed over the DSL but how does the HD TV stack up to Directv in performance and quality? I can bundled all this through ATT and save some money but not if I lose TV quality going away from Directv. Does anyone that has switched have any input for me please.


Thank You

I have ADSL and watch Netflix, Hulu, et al It works for me but I'm sure my setup is not like your setup and users have subjective views. I would try the service without cancelling the former for a month or two to see if it works for you. I specifically like DSL because it is far cheaper than my local cable service. About 35% of the cost of basic cable + Internet.

ATT DSL = 150 Mb monthly limit. You'll burn through your bandwidth with Netflix and Hulu in no time.

I am not on ATT and have no limit. I'm surprised to hear that ATT has a limit on their DSL service. That would indeed suck.

November I did 168 GB. December 91GB, this month 82GB. Not sure where I fall at for average consumer use.
