Satellite Broadband has a 3 to 6 second delay, you would notice most in multiplayer games (unplayable) or "Skype" type video "meetings"(huge lag in the conversations). It doesn't have near the speeds that most low end DSL/cable broadband has. It also costs way more to install and the monthly billing is quite high for the low speeds that you get. The only real benefit would be if you could not get a dial up or any DSL/Cable service in your area. You could still use it fine for email, instant messaging, Surfing the web and the like.

DSL is always the less expensive and usually more reliable than satellite broadband. The only reason to choose satellite broadband is if DSL and cable are not available in your area. There is no wiring necessary for satellite broadband internet and it is available with a permanent connectivity with constant bandwidth. You do not need a phone line and it may be available in rural areas where DSL is not available. Given a choice, I beleive most would choose DSL over satellite broadband.
