Hi everyone,
I am thinking about making a switch from my standard cable to DN but all the "deals" and hidden prices are confusing. Currently I have standard (no digital,no HD) cable that costs $53 a month plus taxes and fees. I would like to lower my monthly costs if possible or at least get improved performance (digital) and features (dvr) for the same price. I have 1 LCD (HD) tv and 3 older analog tvs in the house. Since I dont have digital svc the new tv looks crappy but we live with it because we dont want to spend any more for cable. I am looking at the Bronze 100 or Silver 200service because of the price. I am looking for help with my decisions from current customers that could make suggestions on the best route to take, things they would change now or eliminate. Should I go with a 2 year contract or not? Are there any way around the fees (dvr,local channels, etc.)? I also see where there is going to be a price change on 2/1/10, should I wait to see if new packages are going to be available or do it before? Thanks for any and all help.
