They can reduce the price as much as they want, but I still won't pay for it until they get rid of the DRM.

Remember when TV used to be free, except that you had to watch commercials? I pay $2800 a year to this company for Internet and TV - and I still have to watch commercials. What's wrong with this picture?

I'm not sure but have you tried adjusting your antenna? jk

I finally gave up on tv a few years ago and now Amazon and Hulu are rocking ads and I don't know what steps to take. For the most part I'm just torrenting the shows I want now but it's rather inconvenient.

Wait. You're paying $230+ per month for internet and tv? Even if I was currently living in Western Europe, a fully maxed out package there wouldn't cost half of that and that's without the time gated discounts.
(For comparison: tested with ziggo.nl, largest tv and largest internet package with landline phone comes out to ~€95/month)

In the US, I pay $90/month ($1,080/year) for 1 Gbps internet.

That's it. No TV. No landline. Just Internet.

It's $210 a month plus $30 in taxes and fees for 400 mbit internet with a 1.2 TB usage cap and a mid-tier programming package renting one cable box (required) and one cablecard for the Tivo box. Some months I exceed my internet cap and have to pay $10 for every 50 GB over the limit. Welcome to California living.

Did they connect your house with solid gold cables or what is this?

lemmefixdat4u ,

No gold. It's what they charge us privileged Californians.

$0.99 off per month for the first 6 months, then the price jumps 200%

There's something nostalgically comforting seeing comcast screwing people over with bundles again...
