New TV, New Cable?

I've been hearing raves from my friends who have Direct TV in their homes. Aside from being able to record their shows so they can watch it at a more convenient time, the other things they like about Satellite TV is that it is connected to all the rooms in the house and there are a lot of channels that are in HD or high definition.

My husband's colleague called last week and asking about our move. He said good luck and he also offered a new TV to us. It's a new TV. I was happy to hear that news though because moving is expensive and we do not have budget for a new TV. Anyway, we do not know exactly yet when we will be moving but we have tentative date already for the closing. So, if everything will go smoothly we will probably start moving after the closing.

Now if only I can convince my husband to upgrade our cable plan to Satellite TV, and maybe throw in a new LED or better, the everything will be perfect. We can go watch our shows at our own time when the kids are asleep, and at the same time give the kids some high quality, high definitely shows that they can learn from. Even though they may air simultaneously, it wouldn't be a problem because we can just record and watch it after.
