Internet & Networking So should you pay up to $35 for their lowest 5GB plan, you just might be able to actually watch two HD films. Of course you can go over your limit if you're willing to pay $1 per additional gigabyte, a markup over cost of only 1,000 to 1,500% by Time Warner Cable. That's a bad deal however you slice it -- unless you work in marketing.

There was some competition in my area. Comcast will probably pounce on any opportunity to screw me and it's other customers.

You and me both man, it's ridiculous how there is literally no choice as far as broadband goes in some areas. I would switch immediately from comcast as they have been the most unhelpful dicks I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with.

True, that. Where I live, I have the luxury of choosing between two cable providers. That competition brings a lower monthly fee than in areas with a single provider, along with free channels, such as the local regional sports network, that would be premium under a single provider.

Which provider am I with? Neither. I've got a satellite dish and DSL. This combination is less expensive than comparable service from either of the cable providers.
