i guess i am lucky in my area.

i have COMCAST for everything.

i get high speed internet, free phone calls anywhere,800 channels with HD .phone service has call waiting and 3 party and records for you etc.

if problem happens ,usually the repairman is there same day or next day.

i have 2 digital boxes,1 for living room and 1 for bedroom.

you can get 90 channels with no boxes for 55 dollars.

my bill is 129 with tax each month.

for 1 box its around 115 dollars with all of above.

before i was paying 55 for 90 channels.

22 for verizon local only.

every call was 10 cents a minute for long distance.

12 dollars for DIAL UP .

SO, THAT WAS AROUND 90 DOLLARS A MONTH.

NOW I GET ALL OF ABOVE FOR AROUND 40 DOLLARS A MONTH MORE.

but these companies keep raising prices, its awful.

dollar here a dollar there.[:@]
