I cannot think of many reasons why someone would not want to use a satellite service over cable. They charge so much and you have to be in a certain area, and perhaps your far from the road. Some companies don’t even provide it everywhere which is hard to believe but if you live in an area which has a small population then you would probably not even have a cable option. However, dish vs satellite comparison charts will tell you what you can get compared to the cable price and you can get it installed anywhere as long as you have clear view of the part of the sky they have to face to get reception.
