Re: Don't blame them riding out old contracts? We have 3 BigTen stations. No rate increase with those. We get new channels with no rate increases. NBC decided they wanted money for their local news channel- they got it...no rate increase. This town hasn't seen a rate increase in 7+/- years!
The family that owns the cable company doesn't just give rate hikes. We also have DOCSIS 2.0 with 3 coming around the corner. And i mean around the corner as they're adding new equipment in the field all the time right now. Roughly only 2 blocks on each node as well.
Also if its due to the "old" contracts ATT has brand new contracts and they just raise their TV prices. So the content rates can not be playing any thing with pricing. It's greed. AT$T wasnt even here a month before they raised prices. To which Buckeye is using against them. the handful (maybe 6) homes on my block that changed to U-Verse ended up back at Buckeye within that period of install due to the rate hike. |
