I once lived in a building were half of the apartments on one side had those little satellite dishes and those on the other side were stuck with the local cable company. I've forgotten who they were, but they operated on the traditional cable customer service model of "fuck you very much."Comrade Misfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15404477636451308763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-42389761337945750842007-12-31T07:09:00.000-05:002007-12-31T07:09:00.000-05:00And here I thought only painters sought a northern...And here I thought only painters sought a northern exposure.Lurchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267495048064705949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-35474836803192511192007-12-30T16:55:00.000-05:002007-12-30T16:55:00.000-05:00Lurch,A friend of mine ditched Comcast for a local...Lurch,<BR/><BR/>A friend of mine ditched Comcast for a local start-up cable company: Better service, lower rates.<BR/><BR/>As for me, I do not have a good line-of-sight ti the south, so I can't do any kind of satellite.Comrade Misfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15404477636451308763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-32591461518351628532007-12-30T14:51:00.000-05:002007-12-30T14:51:00.000-05:002 1/2 years ago I got so fed up with Comcast (4 pr...2 1/2 years ago I got so fed up with Comcast (4 price increases in 1 year) that I switched to DirecTV. I pay less for 3 hookups with DTV than I did with Comcast for 2 TV outlets. I get more diversity, including foreign language programming (NOT Spanish) and as a bonus when I call customer service, they actually try to solve my problems. <BR/><BR/>If you want to try DTV, I'd recommend it. Let me know because if I recommend you we each get a $50 payment. ;)Lurchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267495048064705949noreply@blogger.com
