Buenos Aires Television Guide (Part Two)

Cable TV

Cable TV is absolutely huge in Argentina. The biggest provider is Cablevision Digital, but there’s also Telecentro and Multicanal . Their lineups are pretty similar.

DirecTV is actually satellite TV, but it broadcasts in NTSC (good if you have a TV from the US) and better choices if you want to watch shows in English. (The best channels in terms of English language programming include WB, Fox, E! Entertainment, Bloomberg, CNN, BBC World, Animal Planet, and National Geographic.)

All these options have their supporters, so check out their websites to see what suits you the best. Note that the providers usually have packages that include internet access as well.
