Re: Why?

You know what Doc,.. I actually agree with what you're saying.. believe it or not.

What I don't understand, is simple.. TV, no matter WHO provides it, remains a luxury. (Except OTA) If people are going to get THAT worked up over television that they have to sue, or nitpick over how much power a box consumes, or any other "issue" other than getting the service you pay for, then really.. get rid of TV. There are FAR better things to do with one's time than let something like television get people so worked up.

I believe if someone wants something, they should pay for it.. if it's not priced where they want it.. don't take it.. sooner or later, if enough people exercise that option, they'll get it. But, at the same time, if I pay $50 a month, or $200 a month, I DO expect it at least works as advertised and/or they make an HONEST effort to make it work correctly. ALL providers have the ability to make what they sell work correctly if they apply themselves and care.

But, if I can't get what I'm paying for.. it's going to head out the door. Believe it or not, I too have had some choice words with Comcast.. and you knowing what you do about me, trust me, it wasn't pretty in the end, but I won and they complied. I had an issue with my service as well and it ended up being "escalated to the government level".. and by all methods, a CSR actually did the escalation with out me even knowing.

But anyway.. especially in this economy, CUT THE CORD! There's better things to do with that money.. and that includes NOT buying converter boxes...

Yep. And DirecTV does what cable TV does for half the price. Plus, I don't have the random outages (you know, 70 degrees and sunny, nothing but snow on the tee vee) that Comcast is famous for here.

OTA rulez, cable drools.
