DNA Test

So I've decided that I want to do a genealogical DNA test. But I have a few questions.

1. Which services would you recommend? Ancestry.com has changed theirs so it's not readily available. And anyway, I'm not sure that's the best way to go. I've found something called DNA Spectrum, but I'm not sure how reliable/comprehensive they are.

2. Whose DNA do I use? I could do mine, but I feel like that would be a mess because would I know which side was what? So it seems better to go with the two sides, but I think both sides it has to be male, and there's no way I'm getting my uncle to do a cheek swab. Let's leave it at that. ;) (He's a good guy, he'd just find the whole thing pointless.)

Thanks for anything you can tell me!
