    I have cable one right now, but I'm seeing who else I should check with to get a good deal on anything else.

    I am looking for and HD recorder, most channels (minus the movie channels) and then some sort of hight speed internet.

    I know some people bundle with verizon. I have verizon so that should work out.

    Who do you use?

      Get dish and keep cableone or go to midcon for internet if it's available where you live.

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

            qwest dsl, dish network, and soon we'll also have a midcontinent connection.
            i have been pleased with dsl, it's up 99+% with consistent up/down speeds and latency.

                            we use dsl for IP service and netflix "watch instantly" as our only TV service.

                            unless you are addicted to live sports, i don't see the draw of TV. anything you want can be had at the library on dvd, on netflix, or on bittorrent.

                              Midco has NFL network already...its on their lineup, and has been since they came to the area.

                                Just got done comparing prices. Midco has a hell of a deal right now.

                                More channels
                                Hbo (don't have that now)
                                15 mbps speed vs 5 mbps speed

                                $89 for 6 months, plus when it goes to regular price, it is still $30 cheaper per month for the same thing at cable one.

                                    adding to this, my friend has a bluray receiver that streams netflix, youtube, and a couple of other video things. it's something from the lg bd series.

                                    i'm really excited to see what happens with this device.

                                    with something like that, assuming one doesn't use their computer for games, web-browsing, or anything productive, that would be the ultimate home-theater media center

                                        Haha, yeah I found it after I posted. It's not showing the promotional price if you go through the forms on their site and put in your address etc...but that looks like what I might just try. Been without cable for over a month now.
