Message: [QUOTE="syracuse95, post: 5546083, member: 860"] There is a lot I miss about having actual cable, but the cost isn't one of them. Spectrum lost me when they went 100% encrypted digital. They could have provided clear QAM basic cable and I could have left my bedroom/bonus room/office tvs hooked into the wall, and I'd still have cable. But instead they encrypted every channel, raised their package prices for the "digital upgrade", and wanted me to rent boxes for every cable outlet in the house. My $179 cable service was now going to be $475. For no additional channels or services...just to maintain what I already had. Nah. Got YTTV and I'll never look back. Added bonus that I don't need to subscribe to cable at our vacation house, which would be Comcast and another $200/mo bill. Instead I just use the YTTV account there, and get the network affiliates local to that area when I'm there. [/QUOTE]
