For an average Indian it all depends on cost, that is first whether he can afford it, next what is being telecast.
For Indians living overseas, they have to depend on dish network if they want to view their home channels. Direct TV is always free, and hence used to view local news and sports etc. Cable television is more costly (at least in Australia: I pay about $50 monthly for Foxtel, which is a cable television, where as only $43 for SunTV which comes thru the dish). But cable television gives you a lot of choices and also pay-per-view facility.

If you are in the US, I feel Dish Network is the better of the lot, especially if you want Indian channels. The only flop side is you should have a clear view to the southern sky, otherwise dish can't be installed.

It depends on what you want.In my opinion SunTV programs are not suitable for audience who do not want to watch the Serials.If you want Serials only then Suntv is the choice,because from morning to night you get only that on that TV.
If you want to watch variety programs Vijay is the best.There are tons of programs and a few Serials.In my opinios Vijay is thousand times better because I hate Serials.
Moreover with Direct TV you get free DD-India where you get Live news twice a day.
