Hi. This is Phillip Chang with DISH Network. Congrats on the new HDTV! DISH Network offers more than 200 channels in HD; this is the most in the industry. DISH Network is also the home of HD Free For Life which can save you $120 a year. Direct TV has fallen short with their HD promotion, in order to subscribe to their HD promotion you must subscribe to their most expensive programming package, with DISH all of our core packages are eligible for HD Free For Life. In addition, Direct TV only allows new customers to qualify for HD for free, at DISH we allow both new and existing customers to take advantage of this offer.

Let me know if you like any additional information on anything mentioned above.
