Just over a year ago, I changed the entire house to digital cable. Prior to the switch I had
- two bills for 2 phone lines (same company, but Verizon doesn't combine bills!)
- a bill for long distance (one line only)(on a package plan)
- a bill for cable TV
- a bill for ISP for the computer

It is now all on one bill, and I am saving $60 per month. Digital cable went out once in 14 months. Believe me, the company went to work fixing it FAST as a load of people were off line and calling it in. The transformer 4 streets away died/fried something like that. Took less than an hour to fix. Only problem was, with the whole house, I lost everything ha ha.

Last month I upgraded the TV part to Hi def, as we bought a new TV.

Because I was streamlining everything, satellite TV didn't enter the comparisons.

Don't know if this helps or further complicates the issue!
