Nice to know all those massive price increases are going to a worthy cause. 
$250 million in furnishings, $22 million for a video wall...2x a year price increases do a company good. |

They can afford it after the massive screwjob they pulled on the city: their relocation is tax-free for a bunch of years, even though they only moved down the street. Something about keeping jobs in the city, blah, blah, blah. |

What they don't tell you is that it is 80% compressed. |

New Jersey purchased most of the equipment that MSNBC used when they launched in Secaucus, NJ in 1996, and they got a big tax break as well. So this has been happening for years.. practically everywhere. |

How many times a day does the video wall say
One moment please... that channel will be available shortly... Do they have to wait 2-3 business days to get a tech out to fix it?
Oh thats right Brian probably has his own personal tech.
Its about the network comcast! Quit messing around and keep your junk running around here! |

You forgot throttling, starting a net-neutrality war, and HD compression that makes 1080P HD content anything but.
I love tiling all over the place on Sci-Fi because they deem that channel less equal than major league sports. We should be talking about channel neutrality with all these ridiculous sudden compression changes.

What's the "best" thing about that "deal" is that after NJ gave MSNBC all that money to stay in Secacus, MSNBC moved to New York before the tax break period was over so NJ never got any revenue from that "deal". |

Ummm, no provider - including Comcast, delivers in 1080p. |
