Free Basic Cable if you have Cox Broadband in some areas

Personally, COX in the Fairfax County, VA area stinks ... and COX even admits its their worst area (and are "working to improve it") ... but if you have Broadband through Cox cable, its actually cheaper to sign up for and pay for basic cable and get Cox HSI than to get just Cox HSI ... Its $55/month for Cox HSI with no cable TV and $40/month for Cox HSI with basic cable TV which costs ~$10/month IIRC. Personally, I'd rather stick with my Directv and DSL

They inherited Media General's mess, but really haven't done much to "fix" it past the HFC conversion. I figure they think it's easier to lay new cable than fix the existing equipment.

Also - this is my 500th post. Go me.

When I got cable internet, the cable guy said he had to put in a filter until i 'tipped' him $20... free cable for a couple years now

I am here in San Diego county and ever since I had my high speed internet setup, I got their full premium cable for free, not sure if they forgot to put a filter or it just comes like that
