Chose subscription card only option as I provided my own satellite decoder (a Mediastar HDX9100 which is an HD terrestrial AND HD satellite PVR) cabling and dish. Subscribed to the PREMIUM and DISCOVERY packages, so total cost pm $44.90. Excellent quality. Great budget wise for seniors too as SelecTV carries TCM = Turner Classic Movies as standard. If you have a Filipino family member, via ABS-CBN Global (see web for this company) you can subscribe to the ABS-CBN Filipino service AND have SelecTV all on the one bill and subscription card, terrific value here too. Yay for SelecTV!
