NTV is a good tool for language learning. Dish Network is the only one who offers it. There are 2 channels, NTV International and NTV Plus. Both of them are in flux because of legal difficulties. NTV International gets most of its programming from TV6, which is being sold by Lukoil. Gazprom is selling Media Most, the parent company of NTV. It's a messy situation and the programming has suffered. One of the best features of the channels are the Russian news. It's not that cheap, but it is nice to have. -blm Title: Re: If not,,, DirecTV has a special offer Post by: wsbill on October 30, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to Is it worth having the russian programin..., posted by wsbill on Oct 30, 2001
Going on until Oct 31, 2001... get their dish & tronics for free just pay postage and sign up for $31.99 program package for 1 year... This beats the sox off of the Dishnetwork. I gotta have my CNBC, even if it's all bad news :) Title: Re: I went a head and signed with DirecTV Post by: wsbill on October 31, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to Re: If not,,, DirecTV has a special offe..., posted by wsbill on Oct 30, 2001
Yes, the postage is $14.95 and you must never have been one of their customers before and pay for 3 months of the 'Total Access' Package (basic program, no HBO, etc...) But 100 programs etc... I signed up for it. Now that I'm living out here in sticks. http://www.windshieldsbill.com Got the trailer for free and that's going to be my Hydroponic Greenhouse around back, will eventually put a pole barn near the well (white box on the ground near the WEST.

Screw Directv. They are too expensive. I dumped them 2 years ago because they raised their rates and lowered the quality of their service. I was paying over $80 a month to them. The same Dish Network package is just over $60. You got lucky. Directv would have bent you over and screwed you hard. -blm Title: Re: Dish Network is cheaper Post by: DE on November 01, 2001, 05:00:00 AM ... in response to Dish Network is cheaper, posted by BarryM on Nov 1, 2001
I did the Direct TV offer this past summer offered by Blockbuster. $9.95 for the system and installation. At that time they had a 4 month everything plus NFL ticket for $44/mo with no further obligation. Also got a free rental per week for 1 year from Blockbuster. Will probably convert to Dish Network in December when my 4 months are up. So I'd suggest if anyone is considering Direct TV, check with Blockbuster and see if they are still selling for Direct TV.
