I just got off the phone with Comcast and they explained to me if I discontinue using their cable television my internet access goes up to $61 a month. Well that's just too much for what little I do at home. As much is I like the speed I just don't want to pay over $45 a month for it.

Update:
I just got off the phone with Comcast to cancel my service and they counter offered basic cable and High Speed internet for less that just internet service, $55 per month.

Now this is a price I can live with. 😀 Time for a :beer:
 
I feel you pain!

Moved to the country 3 months ago and had to say bye bye to cable...Thanks goodness work is high speed(but that don't help my mmorpg addiction, er "previous" mmorpg addiction)

heh

How about if all of us ATOTers band together and buy/launch our own communications satellite 🙂

That's a great idea. What do those run? A couple of billion?

Good idea!

What kind of latency could we get?

You hardly made a deal. When Comcast bought ATTBI, my cable internet fees went up from $49/mo to $59/mo. At the same time, they started trying to sell me cable TV, saying that cable internet would only be $42/mo if I also subscribed to cable TV. So I got basica cable TV for $12/mo, and now I pay less for TV + Internet than I did for just internet. They do the exact same thing for everyone else.
