There is a way that many of us untilize our Comcast service without having to suffer through commercials, All you need is Comcast's Performance Starter internet service and a Roku box. I'm surprised it is not discussed more in these forums. We are all about simplicity and apply the KISS principle and following these three cardinal rules:
1. Never bundle
2. Avoid all TV packages
3. Reject all offers to upsell you
By keeping things this simple, it is nearly impossible for Comcast to pull any monkey business. All this may sound counterintuitive but we now get GREAT ENTERTAINMENT AS WELL AS INTERNET for LESS THAN 50 BUCKS A MONTHwith no junk fees! Not only that, we watch it in high definition without renting any Comcast cable box or paying any silly HD technology fee! It really affords a value proposition that Comcast just can’t match. Although my post was locked down, you can still read more about it (and give it a Kudo too) by clicking on the following link…
