Roadrunner is $50 to $55? Man, that's high. Must be a regional thing. I pay about $38 a month for RR. That is high for some, but it's so so worth it for me. It truly is like night and day compared to dial-up.

Channel programming and internet access is very high. It's almost approaching gasoline prices.
I think we pay $89 a month for digital cable (TWC) with a 5 mbps Roadrunner line. We get a lousy 6 HD channels, (the channels as said earlier from 100-150 are much better than those from 3-99) but a lot of very good digital music channels.
I think Yahoo/DSL is going for $15-$25 a month depending on which package you purchase. I'm not sure where DirecTV is price wise with HD programming, but it can't be approaching $89 with DSL.
My issue is I've got cable hooked up in the basement, the living room, family room, and four bedrooms. Can you imagine the rental fee for satellite receivers? At $5+ a pop, that would kill the savings.
