Even if Sky and Dream merges, their service is still different. These two are based on cable lines whereas signal is OTA signals. May mga lugar na walang cable lines at magastos magpakabit kasi you need to pay the entire cable line papunta sa bahay mo from the highway; whereas, satellite dish based services like Cignal can accommodate even far flung areas basta may signal reception.

 

at mas malinaw pa ang cignal kesa sky na cable diba? especially kung analog pa na sky yung gamit mo

I don't know. Never ko pa naman na-try yung Sky. See this interesting comparison below though. Parang pareho lang naman? :D From this post http://www.affordablecebu.com/load/technology/cignal_vs_skycable_video_quality_which_is_better/7-1-0-20021

well, maybe those two are the best quality for both. so in short they are just the same? cignal is satellite dish based while sky is cable based right? both are digital?

^Ako din eh. Parang pareho lang naman yung picture? :D Although some forums mention na mas malinaw daw ang satellite dish signal (image and audio also) compared sa cable lines.

 

i think its because of the cable lines used by sky. maloko ata yung mga technicians nila. hindi inaayos yung pagkabit. yung satellite ata mas madali ayusin yung pagkabit

i personally do not like Sky cable or broadband. There hasn't been a time that their services were not being fixed. I wonder about the contractors that they use, because of the amount of calls that have been made to my home and I would think to others as well.

At least now I can switch my broadband to Pldt and if Cignal gets more channels may move to them as well.

Cignal user for 18 months, I have the Plan 1090 with I do not know how many HD channels. but enough to keep me glued to the tv for at least 3 hours a day. They recently added Hyper HD(which shows UFC cards) and PBA Rush(they show PBA games in HD and no commercials, the better to hate on your most hated player with). Only problem I had was the occasional disruption when heavy rains are coming. The reception will go out for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Otherwise, the subscription has been awesome. At least I have an early warning when rains are about to fall. The outage gives me enough time to grab my sinampay from outside the house.

pareho ba ng tv plus ito? o the same as usual cable sya?

hindi ko pa nasubukan ang TV plus. pero sa observation ko ay hindi niya ito kagaya. unang-una hindi plug and play ang cignal. kailangan may technician na dadating sa bahay niyo para mag-install ng dish at mag ayos ng set top box nila. iyon lang naman ang iniba niya sa ibang cable services. ingat din sa contractor na lalapitan kasi madami akong nababasang hindi magandang review. bonus sa nilapitan ko kasi P1500 lang ang installation fee. tapos nag-apply pa as bill payment iyong binigay ko sa kanila. ibig sabihin, free na ang installation fee ko.

Personally, mas maganda yung Cignal. Quality wise. (though nawawala signal minsan kapag sobrang kapal ng ulap.)

Yung sa sky naman....ewan ko ba. Medyo ano yung quality sa cable at dsl. (DSL 16mbps nga..hindi naman stable...so ano na lang?)
Tagal pa sumagot ng technical assist. Mga nababasa comment puro nega. (e.g kuha ng kuha customer pero di maasikaso yung naging customer na)

 

Sulit na yung 830 plan (Problem ko lang may umuulit na channel. SD at HD format)
