Re: DVR or Computer

But all he or she was railing against were "Triple Play" and related bundle packages; he or she is probably well aware that FiOS and others are available standalone.

The topic news article is about a package that apparently will ONLY be available as part of an incumbent cableco's service offering -- a bundle deal -- and so his or her post appears to be on point, and not at all ignorant.

Then what's this "got you by the balls" nonsense? Nobody is forcing you to use the services.

I would guess because the tripleplay discounts disappear as you start to unbundle, and/or you may be locked to a "first year" discount contract, and/or you may be reticent to move your phone number and/or endure the migration hassles.

But I can't read the poster's mind.
