I'm in central Ohio. We have 3 cable companies here... Warner, Insight and I forget the third one?

Competition isn't all it's cracked up to be. they all charge the same prices and are set up where you can only get 1 or 2 of the competition or even just one. We pay $67.00 a month with 2 digital boxes. this also covers 2 rooms=2 tv's.

I would rather have the limited choices of just what I want to watch but they'll find a loop to charge more, just as they do now. Ours does it in tiers, you'll get like 20 hokey channels and one prime like ESPN, each I think is like $7.00 and of course rental charges for each box each month, service fees, yada yada yada!

If I had it my way, we wouldn't have cable at all.
