I have Dish. I have had the signal go out twice in really bad weather since I got it in June. From what I can tell, it is pretty similar to DirectTV. I chose it over DirectTV solely because of NFL football.
All I wanted was the Redzone channel. Dish offers this in their $11/month multi-sport package which you can cancel at anytime. DirectTV requires you to purchase NFL Sunday ticket to get the Redzone channel, which is free the first year but several hundred dollars in year 2. Sure you get access to every game, but I didn't need that. Dish was much cheaper for what I wanted.
ETA: I kept my Cox Internet. I haven't tried dish Internet, but I haven't heard great things.

Just pay attention to all of the fees that go along with the new hopper. They get you from every direction.

If Dish offered the same channel as Direct...no brainer...because Dish in ten years only went out once during a hellish thunder storm.
As I said earlier Direct goes out if a leaf blows by the dish.
If it ever goes out during an LSU game I'll go back to Dish regardless of channel selection.
