I went with Cox because of a promo that gave premium cable modem price break to subscribers. I like the internet and have a computer room in which we're all geeked-out. The kids and I can be online simultaneously in the same room, which doesn't look so much like monitoring....

I'm not much of a TV guy so 3 channels or 1,000 is all the same to me--though I'd miss some of the cable news, science, history, and my beloved C-SPAN.

Most of the rest of it is mercifully forgettable BS.
