Re: Fios vs. DOCSIS

Problem here, from a current FIOS and former Cable customer, the fiber is costing less, a lot, and the service blows away the cable option.

With several times the bandwidth of cable, especially on the upstream, and TV about to be offered at a fraction of what Comcrap was charging - the cheap stuff is the superior tech and the crap is costing more.

With TV, Internet and phone costing about 65% of Comcast's next closest offering which fails to make the performance grade, cable has zero chance of ever getting me back as a customer.

65%? got a link? Is that for Promo vs Promo, or normal price vs. normal price?
Do you really think Verizon will be your saviour for long? They are already increasing prices. Read the first page.

Yeah and we all no cable doesn't ever jack rates. Even if verizon saves me $5 a month I will gladly swap.
