Will my internet and landline work with direct tv.?
I hope someone comes along who understands this better than I, but I think you can only get internet bundled with Direct TV from one of these providers -- CenturyLink, Exede, Cincinnati Bell, HughesNet, Windstream, and Mediacom. None of them service my area. And internet does not come with the basic TV, it's added at additional cost.
If your landline is over the internet (VOIP), and if one of the above is available for internet then it should work.

How does a digital video recorder work with cable or satellite TV?
DVRs are compatible with most any cable, satellite or antenna setup. Your exact setup instructions will vary according to the type of DVR you purchase. You'll need to review your owner's manual for more information, but here are some tips:
- Depending on your current home entertainment arrangement, you'll basically hook up your cable line to your DVR, plug your DVR into an electrical outlet, and leave your cable box as is. If you have services like TiVo or RePlay, you'll follow on-screen instructions for setting up your program guide and recording your cable channels.
- If you have a VCR or receiver, your setup instructions may be slightly different. See your DVRs manufacturer's manual for exact instructions.
Notes about setup if you use DVR services like TiVo:
- Some DVR services (like TiVo) require that you hook your DVR to your phone line (instead of plugging it into an outlet). The TiVo service does daily downloads of your cable company's program listings to your DVR during a pre-set time. If you have DSL and want to use a service like TiVo, place a filter on the phone line plugged into your TiVo DVR.
- Some may be incompatible with HDTV and C-band satellite systems.
If you need help with your DVR hardware and the answers aren't in the manual, visit your DVR manufacturer�s web site to locate tutorials, FAQs or a support center phone number. Some of the common DVR manufacturer�s include:
- TiVo: www.tivo.com
- Philips: http://www.consumer.philips.com/?

The area of the earth which is imaged during a satellite orbit is referred to as the satellite swath and can range in width from ten to hundreds ofkilometers. As the satellite orbits the earth a different area is covered due to the earth's rotation. The elevation of the satellite orbit is designed so that the same location will be retraced (imaged) in a period of several weeks.

The number of 90% seems unlikely unless Nielsen is counting people with personal satellite dishes. At this point the National Cable Television Association claims that they can reach 127.5 million homes in the Unites States, but are actually providing service to 48.5% of them. The US Census has stated that there are a total of 128.2 million housing units (homes) in the country. That would mean that cable companies are providing service to 61.8 million homes.
The only two remaining full-service satellite companies in the US that I can find are Dish Network and Direct TV. Combined they have 32.3 million subscribers - not all of whom would necessarily be home subscribers from what I can tell. However, if we conservatively accepted that all of them were home subscribers, that would mean that 94.1 million American homes have either satellite or cable (73%). If we then take Verizon FiOS and AT&T's U-verse into account and count them as something like cable providers, we'd have 98 million homes in the US receiving video content from a subscription service of some kind, or 76.44%.
This would mean that roughly 24% of American homes receive video content off-the-air, via personal satellite, or don't receive any regular video content at all. Confusing the matter *might* be that 13.6% of American homes are either unoccupied or are vacation/part time properties. I found no data on how many of these part time homes subscribe to cable, satellite or something like FiOS.
If you assume that only the 110.6 million homes that are occupied full-time are counted by Nielsen, then you arrive at 88.6% of American homes have cable, satellite or FioS/U-verse. That's still not quite 90%, and it assumes that people who have a subscription service in their primary residence would not in their secondary one. That seems unlikely somehow. It also assumes that all other subscription television services provide service only to homes, again something that seems unlikely.
Finally, further confusing the matter would be a 2006 report by the FCC which states that 14% of American homes receive television off the air. I have no idea where they got that number from, and I'm willing to believe it's either just wrong or a typo.
Original Answer:
"I found an article from December 2008 quoting the Television Bureau of Advertising, who found from analysis of Nielsen data that about 90 % of TV households have either cable or satellite.
