Re: Look at the total costs
But, then I'd have to put up with Cable rate increases...
I've managed to survive with DSL for the past year after switching away from Comcast. I indeed miss the speed, but my overall bill is significantly lower than it was with Comcast.
As always, your total cost depends on the options you throw on top of the basic services. |

| Very true...
TimeWarner VoIP = $44.95 (intro discounts + bundled discounts available)
AT&T unlimited local + ld = $44.95 (bundled discounts available)
TW: $34.95 1.5Mbps, $44.95 6Mbps, $54.95 (10 or 15Mbps) (bundled discounts available, and into discounts)
DSL (AT&T or in my case, DSL-Extreme) = $12.95 (768/384), $17.95 1.5/384 $22.95 3Mbps/512, $32.95 6Mbps/768 (I pay $2/month more as those were 1st year pricing. AT&T gives bundled discounts)
TW: Digital TV $44.95 for basic digital TV + franchise fees. (intro + bundled discounts available) $9.95 / extra tv
DirecTv: $44.95 for digital, $5/extra TV
They're all similar... however, it typically makes sense to use satellite/DSL/POTS OR cable/HSI/VoIP for pricing. |
