Press Struggles to Justify Cable Modem Fees → HUH

Comcast charges modem rental fees all the time, and have done so since they were pimping out @home service. Since they are also the largest cableco I guess I am having a hard time understanding the big deal in a 4 dollar fee that most cable isps already charge to there customers.

I believe Comcast's price is lower than TW? Of course being capped it's really not a comparable service, you are lucky they don't also require 1 liter of blood a month, and 2 hours with your sister.
