also i wanted to add that when i was with my gf pookie our  cable tv bill got 
out of control. the phone bill got out of control. it went from being 
managable to being  way too high.

i called customer support and they were done with doing the temporary  1 year 
credit with  costs being lower.


so i went with using ooma (phone service only using the  cost for 911,etc) 
and using  using slingtv.  that lasted for a while but then the shows we 
wanted where on other networks.  that's how they play the game.

there's no way to win except going to the download/steal model of doing 
things.

all the providers want to fuck customers over.  by raising prices and 
removing content
