The only problem is that many cable companies also own the internet infrastructure in Florida 4 years ago my choices for cable/internet were century link with 5mb dsl. bright-house. Comcast. And time Warner which was not bad considering what other people only have access to. Today now it’s just time Warner and Comcast because time Warner gobbled up fucking bright house and century link isn’t worth it because of the damn speed. So now I’m down from 4 service providers down to two until century link upgrades to fiber

My cable company has a monopoly in our area and they make you buy at least a small five channel box for internet. They used to make you get a landline too. I wonder what cable subscriptions would look like if internet only was a real option.
