Via Directsattv.com - Subscribers to the best HD satellite TV are in for a nice surprise. DIRECTV, the most popular satellite service in the United States, recently announced the addition of fourteen new HD channels to their lineup. The announcement is made even more painful to Dish Network since they have recently had to cut channels from their lineup.
