3. We have direct tv.
We recently got rid of all the premium channels and now just have the basic channels. Not sure how much we pay, but it's less than 150 by a long shot

4. We have DirecTV.
$49.99 per month for Total Choice Plus, and that includes local channels. (We don't get premium stations like HBO or Showtime, but hey have packages for those also.)

I can't remember how many channels we get, but it's a lot. We also get the NFL Direct Ticket package every year.

10. Same here + DVR is $4.99 extra
NFL Sunday Ticket + Tivo = The highest point of civilization ever reached on this planet.

5. Wow $150

6. I read somewhere that Robert Murdock owns directv
However, that may be just a rumor.

7. Yeah, Don't really care that Murdoch owns it as long as
it remains under 60 bucks for basically everything except premium stuff like HBO. Can't live without Fox Sports World, sorry to say.
