Satellite TV NC The Home Entertainment Revolution
Over the years the way we entertain ourselves has undergone a litany of changes. These changes have taken place both inside and outside our homes. Drive in theaters were built in North Carolina and used and then bull dozed over a period of some thirty years. Walk in theaters, once a staple of American public entertainment, became prohibitively expensive.
TV went through several changes also. Black and white went to color and screens got big and then got bigger. What we watch on TV has also changed over the years also. North Carolina TV programming started out with live programming that was performed by talented actors that came over from radio broadcasting.
Then over the years, the North Carolina programming slowly went downhill, until it got so bad that North Carolina cable service appeared to fill a nitch that was created by the lack of quality programming on standard TV, witch was notorious for horrible, dull comedy, that wasn't funny at all and required canned laughter that mimicked the sound of a laughing crowd.
North Carolina Cable programming service was welcomed as a relief from the horrible programming that standard TV was and still is. Cable TV also went on for twenty-four hours a day, witch was something that was new, because the standard TV programmers at least had the decency to stop their mediocre programming in the evenings, until it started up again in the morning.
The cable companies had it made and there were a lot of sheep to be sheered in the way of the captive clientele that was the vulnerable public. Cable companies charged for everything and reaped huge profits as they battled over service area turf like crack dealers. There were numerous political scandals across the U.S. as cable companies corrupted elected public officials with bribes to win exclusive rights to broadcast in communities.
North Carolina Cable companies enjoyed a long joy ride at the expense of the consumer as they gouged their customers on virtually everything. Like gangsters they took advantage of public utility easement rights to force their way into peoples yards to install unsightly, green junction boxes, weather or not the hapless residents were using their over priced services or not.
By the time satellite service arrived in the early nineties, the public consumer was more than ready for a change. The only area that cable companies had undergone any real growth was in cost of their services to their customers. Two North Carolina satellite companies have emerged as the top performers in the industry and they are North Carolina DISH Network Satellite TV and DirecTV and they have accomplished this by being everything that the cable companies weren't.
Better pricing on more choices of more channels, is the basic foundation that these North Carolina satellite service providers work off of. Free equipment, free installation and free channel trials are other areas that they differ from cable companies. While cable companies have racked up a dismal record on service outages and general customer satisfaction, Dish Network and North Carolina DIRECT TV Satellite have the lowest percentage of service outages of all programming service providers.
J.D. power and associates has recognized them for the last five years in a row for their stellar records in general customer satisfaction. So it seems that the age of North Carolina satellite TV programming, has brought about a new revolution in home entertainment.
