(View all)Instead of innovating, their solution is to constantly raise rates as they bleed subscribers. If I had other options for broadband, I'd gladly ditch them. /end rant.
Altice can suck it, I don't care what service they offer.
It’s a happy day because this is something you and I agree on 100%. Comcast really has us by the you-know-whats.Would be nice if we had more choice of internet. Anytime I'm enticed by stories like this, I'm quickly snapped back to the reality that no matter what I do for my television watching, I'm beholden to Comcast for my internet, and then I just forget about it. The bad part is, Comcast's internet is the worst... I constantly need to reset my modem, speeds are blazingly fast one day and crawling the next, they inundate me with sales calls even though I'm under contract and have no desire to add/remove services, and they refuse to let me stream to the Apple TV. I don't care if they make me lease their equipment, at least give me the option to use something else while I lease the box.

There is no Xfinity/Comcast app for Apple TV, and you can't use Airplay from the Xfinity apps to stream to the ATV.Not sure what you are saying? You can not use your Apple TV?
When you pay continuously high fees and sometimes you get 1mb down and .5 upload speeds, its all moot at that point.You obviously haven't been in a place without cable and have to use DSL, satellite or LTE internet.
I get what you're saying, but I don't pay for sometimes-great internet.
