Customers Without Digital Box Must Pay to Upgrade Equipment

Miscellaneous

With broadcasts all going digital, Direct TV has promoted itself as "no problem". But there IS a problem if you have been a faithful DTV patron. If you didn't get a DIGITAL box, you will have to pay big bucks to upgrade, and then pay more per month. We have decided it is cheaper to drop DTV and pick up Dish TV, free equipment and set up.

I don't mind (yes I do) paying a little more each month, but to pay to upgrade THEIR equipment is too much.
