People in TWC's service area who feel strongly about this issue, even in places where there are no caps, need to switch ISPs immediately.

It is the only way to get TWC's attention.
My choices in an apartment in Kansas City are TWC and I think earthlink which leases TWC's lines. I have a bundle that gives me cable + internet for 75 bucks on a 14 month contract. As long as I can keep that bundle and don't have caps I will stay. But if bundle disappears or there are caps and I will go. Believe it or not money matters. If I dropped TWC and went with earthlink I would be paying basically the same price but wouldn't get cable. I'll do it if I have to, but unless I have to I am not going to make the switch. Plus when my contract runs out in the summer I may be able to lock in another 14 months cap free at the cheap price.

Living off the grid, cable wise wasn't too bad. I tried it for a bit with just internet and no cable (which incidentally is exactly what TWC is trying to avoid happening w/ more and more of its users). I don't have a choice of cable providers where I live, or ISP's. AT&T says their coming, but when, I don't know and their package isn't any better than TWC's, and they're talking about (or were) caps, too.

Using the PS3 to connect to Hulu, Netflix, and directly to the major networks sites, I honestly didn't miss a whole lot...you just get creative. You're probably already aware of all that, but just saying for the rest...life won't end without cable, as there is so much access to other content out there.

Insomniac will just need Ron Paul to endorse it before he'll go with it.

I keed...I keed.
