..are you just being looney? or are you really being serious...? (serious question)

The money YOU pay for cable comes back through your television. Your statements that you've made, though small, are pretty intense towards the fact that you have any say where your money goes in the first place.

You don't own the cable you pay for.

You don't have say how they spend THEIR profits.

You don't have share or stake or even vote in the company.

You pay a bill and get your service each month and that is where your relationship with the company ends.

But, along the lines of is THEIR money going down a "dark void" as you say.. again, I ask, are you serious? Any idea how much it costs to upgrade systems that have 750 thousand active customers? DVRs are cheap, ADS conversions aren't cheap, phone builds & conversions aren't cheap. Hell, do you have ANY idea how much one single mailing campaign cost to send out just to sell that service?
Dood, you're talking to someone who probably would come here asking for help because they can't get their laptop working behind their Linksys router.

You REALLY expect them to understand the upgrade of 750k+ people?

You need to lower your expectations of the average user of this site man.

"You need to lower your expectations of the average user of this site man."

I understand that ... but this is also the same group that comes here and tells people that actually KNOW what they are talking about that they are wrong.

I actually know what I'm talking about on many of the subjects I post on.. and I get followed up by people who think they know and I'm told to shut it all the time.

I think one can only take it for so long.
