Re: NO TV! Well, being that 99% of America has one... I highly doubt this is the case.
I have Satellite TV... our rates have gone up a little over the past 5 years that we've had it. The Top 40 Package from Dish TV has gone from 19.95 to 24.95, which also included an addition of 10 additional channels to become the Top 50.
Yes, I pay an additional 5 dollars for local channels, and another 5 dollars for the additional receiver... but I'm also getting all digital channels and an interactive program guide for $34.95 a month. Do I still think I'm overpaying, yes... but not nearly as much as the Time Warner ripoff in this area.
I just checked Time Warner Digital Cable in my area (Raleigh, NC), and the price is 45.15 a month, which also only includes one digital terminal. Additional Digital Terminals are 6.60 a month.
It's kind of funny, a couple years ago, one of the major advertising runs in this area for cable was that you could have it on all of your TV's for no extra charge.
Tech Support doesn't suck for Dish TV either, although thats just my personal experience.

| $45.15 for digital cable!!?!?!
No offense, but that's a great deal. In my city digital cable is over $54, and additional digital receivers are $7.95/month. |
