Please list what you're subscribed to so we can easily compare. It seems like rates went up with 2004.

No satellite/DirectTV figures or comments please! There is this thread for that -> http://www.acuramdx.org/forums/show...&threadid=13177

Thanx!

We're charged $120 for digital cable from TWC. We've got the standard lineup + digital tier service + HBO/CineMAX, SHOWtime/TMC, Encore movie packs + 2 DVR boxes, and RR broadband w/one dynamic IP.

I got Garden State Comcast analog cable with the @Home internet access for $54 a month (tax included.) I think it will increase about $15 a month if I decide to go with digital cable.

Mediacom (analog, extended cable, no premium (HBO, etc)) about $48 a month including the numerous taxes. I think it's around $42 sans taxes.

Charter Digital Cable with a 2mb pipe connection runs about $105 month. We only subscribe to two movie channels (HBO and Cinemax) but we have all other channels. Its way too expensive but I get reimbursed from my job for the cable modem so it only costs me about $60 out of pocket. We looked into sat TV but it was no cheaper. I think all cable companies are a rip off.

Cox Communications: Total of four TVs, two have digital cable boxes w/HBO, Showtime/TMC, and two have expanded basic cable w/HBO, Showtime/TMC for a total of $84.00/mo. Add cable internet modem (1.5mps download) @ $40/mo and TV Japan channel for the spouse on the digital boxes @ $25/mo and you can see what I am being soaked for.

If I go HDTV, I have to shell out another $6 for the new box (would only get for one tv) and if I want Discovery HD would pay another $5. ESPN HD, ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS HD channels are no charge.

Adelphia...$72/mo. Expanded basic, HBO, Starz, TV Guide (analog). We don't need the extras because we hardly ever watch them. Total of 6 TV's but I'm not sure that effects the rate.

Charter digital with HBO and internet access (modem rental) $105 per month before taxes. :mad: Satelite seems to be about the same $$$. I am sure the bill will go higher to add HD. :eek:

$109/mo. for digital cable (no movie channels) and broadband. Really looking around at this point. The $40 for broadband is OK I guess but $65 for digital cable - c'mon.
