Re: T/W worse then comcrap? TW is way worse than Comcast. TW does offer slightly cheaper pricing, but they're less of a market leader. We've been very sorry to see them go from the LA area.
Comcast brought our cable system up to speed at a record pace after picking it up from AT&T broadband. They brought us HD channels and HD DVR when it was relatively new. Comcast also made good use of VOD technology. Comcast is pushing forward with DOCSIS 3. And while they do have a cap placed on their internet services, it's a generous amount clearly designed to curtail truly excessive use.
Time Warner seems to do little more than react to competitors and do as little as possible to stay relevant. It's been 3 years since they took over and LA is still a compeltely disjointed mess. They can't even seem to decide on what speeds they want to offer our area. In Tujunga we seem to jump around between 6/512, 10/1, and 6+Poweboost/512. Some have postulated that these are "Tests" but it seems they are just upgrading certain areas in response to U-verse or FIOS.
Here's a hint TW: Don't wait for your competitors to move in. Once your customers are gone, they're probably gone for good.
