    slingbox- Comcast to Directv customer?

    Thank you everyone, anyway, for taking the time to reply to me, a complete stranger. You've been more than helpful and I appreciate it very much! :) Still going to look into bundling my comcast phone/internet w/ their "Limited Basic" package (which DOES carry CSN!) I emailed them and posted...

    slingbox- Comcast to Directv customer?

    Good point! I will check the comcast site to see if I can find this info. My experience w/ asking comcast phone reps about details is that you get as many different answers as reps that you speak to. No kidding.......one morning I called comcast w/ the same question. Called 5x, spoke w/ 5...

    Even tho we're switching TV providers, we will be sticking with the Comcast internet, which is pretty fast. My teen sons don't want to part w/ that bc of the speed of gaming and downloading. Should work, huh?

    thanks vvovv The problem w/ MLB is that the Phillies games will be blacked out for me bc I live in the Phila area. Same for games on espn. At least that is what I'm reading. No one around me has satellite so I really don't know what to expect regarding the Phillies games and DTV. My parents...

    slingbox- Comcast to Directv customer?

    Hello! New here! Just looking for some info. Due to the cost, we are leaving Comcast and going to Directv at the end of this month. The major drawback to this decision was the loss of comcast sportsnet (Phila). We are big Phillies fans and will be sick over missing many of the games. A...
