you could at least post the useful information
quote:
AT&T U-verse service will go up Jan. 26, with customers paying $3 a month more for all service plans (except for U-basic) and paying a $2.99 monthly broadcast TV surcharge, which offsets what local TV networks charge the company to carry their programs.
quote:
Most Dish Network subscribers will pay $5 a month more for service, effective Jan. 17.
But those who have the company’s Smart Pack plan will see a $3 monthly increase, to $33, and the cost of the bare bones Welcome and the America’s Choice 120+ plan will stay the same.

wonder if calling and threatening to cancel my subscription might get me out of this increase. already paying $130 a month to watch about 5 hours of tv a week.

In the near future, these companies are in for a rude awakening with more and more people cutting the cord.

It's almost as if they want us to do it.

frick that. I am not paying a single dollar more than what I pay now. I will call Dish and downgrade my package out of principle.

Already done and it has been easy. Even better since, for example, NBC Sunday night games are streamed free and don't even show commercials.
I have a leaf HD antenna. I paid my buddy a few bucks a month to hop on his Netflix account. He also gave me his NFL Network and ESPN3 login. I have Amazon Prime so therefore I have Amazon video. I also have uTorrent.
Plenty enough to get by.

I cancelled cable over a year ago now. I have internet (still $50/month) and netflix streaming.
About 4 months ago we bought a cheap HD antenna and get ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and a few other crap channels.
I have been pretty happy with this set up, with the only real downside being no ESPN for football. I am able to watch most games on the internet in some form. Those that are more inclined, probably do the same and hook their computer up through their TV and probably dont miss a beat.

wtf, with AT&T coming with more competition, and their still raising their prices.
But this is a key factor.

One of the biggest drivers in the rising cable rates is the cost of carrying sports channels, such as ESPN, Fox Sports 1 and The SEC Network, set to launch in the summer
