I don't know why everybody is so keen to encourage others to give up cable TV. Sure, I don't have cable TV, and I get most of my video-watching via the internet. Where do I get my internet access from? Why, Comcast, the only provider of high-speed internet in my area. If everybody starts getting all their TV through the internet, what will Comcast do? They'll start charging everybody a lot more for internet access in…
What you're describing sounds suspiciously like an abuse by Comcast of their monopoly, to the consumers' detriment.
Ha - I think that's already happening...
