NOT only that COMCAST forces you to have cable and internet
NOT only that COMCAST forces you to have cable and internet to do some stuff like on line DVR control so if you have DSL and cable tv you can not use DVR remote control and this may also be true for the HBO thing and maybe Olympics as well.
Direct tv much better with this you are not locking to any one IPS for there dvr remote control and olympics on line stuff that is tied to your tv package .
