Since its inception in nineteen-ninety-four, DirecTV has taken pride in the fact that they stand apart for the crowd with regards to service and programming packages. Their programming packages are a great blend of well balanced topics that have something for everyone, regardless of their tastes in TV programming.

DirecTV allows you to custom tailor your programming package, with a wide variety of choices that are available for you to choose from. They make it so easy and inexpensive for you to make changes and adjustments after you have chosen any one of their diverse programming packages. This means that you wont be locked in to a rigid menu of programming, if at some time you would like to make changes in your service package.

Their Total Choice package is loaded with one-hundred and fifty-five channels of programming for you to select from and it is their entry level package. This package sets the standard for entry level programming packages, by not shorting you on choices, even though it is economically priced. You can still add more channels out of the wide selection of topics that they have for you to choose from.

DirecTV has exclusive rights to some sports channels, that no other service provider carries and you have the option of adding any of them to your package if you choose to. There is also adult programming that is available to augment you programming package with, if you want to.

Their next level of programming package, is the Total Choice Plus package and it has one-hundred and eighty-five channels of great programming for you. Their Total Choice Premier package is loaded down with two-hundred and fifty channels of programming for you. With this and the other packages you can also add on their high definition programming if you wish to.

Some service providers have cheaper entry level packages that offer far fewer channels of programming, but what they dont tell you is that with so few channels available, you will soon realize that there is only a small handful of channels that will interest any one person.

Inevitably the customer ends up coming back to adjust up the number of channels in their programming package or switch to different package at an added cost. DirecTVs entry level package has enough programming choices that there will be no need to return for a larger package. DirecTV wants you to be content with your choice in programming and doesnt want you to have to return because you were dissatisfied with your initial choice.

Their simple and easy to understand packages are easy to select from and easy to add on to. If a programming service provider has a wide variety of programming packages for you to choose from, they are also most likely less flexible when it comes to adding extra channels and you will most likely end up having to switch from one to another and they know this. For simplicity and flexibility and honesty in satellite TV programming look to DirecTV where the package you select, will be the one that you can stay with.
