Bitch all you want.
We will, and once Gene Kimmelman, director of the Washington office of the Consumers Union points this out to the FTC and the Justice Department's antitrust division to investigate the tactic I believe we will see some pretty fast changes. You have neglected to see the obvious fact that she did not choose to go with the bundled pack and that they are extorting her for not doing so!

The only reason why Comcast is getting bitched at is because they are doing it right now.
Wrong! Comcast is getting bitched at because they chose to take advantage of the bundled package from the back end. They are charging the bundled package to those that are not opting to use it at a raised price in attempt to move those customers to their cable service as well. Obviously as in the original post, it is a tactic of simple extortion.
said by Nightfall:
My opinion is this, if you don't like the price increase, then don't pay for it or get TV cable to make the price lower.
Although you are entitled to your opinion it is painfully obvious this is extortion and I for one hope they burn, just my opinion.
