 | Not to defend RCN, but Direct does also charge $10 a month just to get HD. So their is an added cost for the first HD box. With RCN going digital, Direct is on the same playing field. If Direct has a better deal then switch.
Personally I'll be paying more per month now to get a feature I want (clearQAM locals) from Verizon. I'm sure we aren't the only customers RCN will lose. I'm sure they hope they gain more than they lose. Personally, I always find it's usually easier to keep existing customers than to find new ones. |
