I'll add my two cents. Comcast gives a $10 discount on broadband internet for its TV customers. We signed up for Basic cable, which is just under $12 a month. It gives us just a few good cable channels plus all broadcast channels. So, for a little less than $2 a month we get better reception of local TV channels than provided by an antenna.
We have Dish because it cost less than Direct TV a few years back, when we first got the equipment. We have experience almost NO dropouts. If the antenna is not pointed correctly these would be more frequent, whichever satellite you have. The Dish menu is fine for me. I found the Direct TV menu less friendly when I saw it a couple years ago.
