I have two DirecTV DVR's They play well with an external esata HD. Have not crashed or missed a recording in a long time. The recent software updates have worked very well.
Plus DirecTV on Demand thru the internet is way cool. And remote scheduling via the website ofr my blackberry is very addictive.
I do not thing that Dish has ondemand or remote booking.
dish has ondemand over the internet and thru the satellite. a customer support rep told me that the remote scheduling was on the way but there were a few problems with it.... dish is a little cheaper, depending on the package/hd acess. both companies are pretty good, although i didnt have a very good experience with directtv support.

I also have DirecTV and I didn't know they had enabled remote booking.
