From the view point of programming quality as well as price matter, Dish Network America's Top 200 stands as our top recommended programming package. Monthly cost considered cheap (seeing the number of channels you are getting); the programming package covers most of the popular programmings (with quite a number of quality sports channels); and you'll get free Sirius satellite radio (more than 40!) service that're not covered by America's Top 100.

A quick run on the programming line up can be found here; also, you might call the listed number above as well for phone inquiry.
