Pros if DirecTV is removed:
1) More space under the seat (box is gone)
2) darker cabin on night flights
3) no more listening to that stupid WELCOME ABOARD WITH DIRECTV YOUR FLIGHT WILL FLY RIGHT BY HAHAHA commercial

Cons if DirecTV is removed:
1) If the plane is delayed the captain can no longer say "folks I'm giving you all free TV for this flight"

I vote remove. Broadcast TV is on its way out anyways, I'd rather have fast streaming like they do on B6.
