The thing is, TWC's main cable pricing ads I've seen (mailers and online) only states "Free HDTV Local Channels" -- there's no "*" thereafter to indicate anything additional is required. Hence by TWC's ads I can see why people would be think that the "Free HDTV Local Channels" would be free.
Only until you get deeper into the cable pricing you'll see the additional costs to get the "Free HDTV Local Channels":

$10 is only for asterisked DVR HW options |
If you have a standard HD receiver you don't pay the $10. |
