    I've found that using your money for good internet is better.

    I personally don't care about the backstage stuff. I just want to watch the games. Plus, if you're savvy enough, you can find it online.

    I'll stick to my streams of the games.

    I just switched away from those bkitches.
    Their "whole house' DVR is a pile of misleading shit. Can't pause/rewind live TV from the satellite boxes.

    i've got mobile internet access thru work so that's not an issue
    best part, the owner of the house i rent switched it -- and it's free [for me]
    tbh, i wouldn't have switched if it was my $$$
    but free dodgers is good

    and damn you lasports for raining on my parade :kickginger:

    they offer new customers $50 a month for cable w HBO and SHO w internet
    mine is has slowly crept up to $200 and when I told them I wanted that deal they said no
    so basically they punish their loyal customers
    i'm taking all the boxes and that shit whole house dvr in on Tuesday and they told me I would need to wait a month to reconnect
    i don't think im going to
    im going basic service somewhere and getting one of those streaming pirate boxes for $200

    Call them and say you want to cancel.
    When they ask why say u moving to a rival company because its cheaper.
    They will start to negotiate you down.
    Of not then get a new user deal from thw rival.

    i did that and they basically said bring in all the boxes but one and they could get it down to 150
    its all a game
    i could say i am moving and put it in my kids name for that matter
    one good thing about them is its month to month and not 2 year satellite deals

    I'm now paying $154/mo for Whole house DVR (2 playback boxes), HBO, Cinemax, Epix and Starz, extreme InTarWEbZ and phone. Before I shitcanned Encore, Showtime, took back the outdated DVR's and rebundled, the bill was near $200.

    Where can you get those that work now? I used to buy them from the back of Audio Review magazine.

    met this guy from NY in MDE in May
    his brother hooks them up and you can literally find anything on it
    full streaming HD and all events you just need basic cable
    we were watching it in the apartment and its easy to use and works great
    i know 4 other guys that have them and they all swear by them

    I'm paying TWC $126 for Internet, Phone, and 1 DVR box. I use a wireless HDMI transmitter and IR blaster to watch and control TV from the bedroom.

    TWC also has a roku app that actually streams very smoothly. It's virtually the same as having a box, minus DVR. And it's free. So we can watch live TV anywhere in the house despite only having one box.

    But still, TWC sucks. The DVR never works properly, the channels are too hard to remember, customer service sucks, etc.

    If the Dodgers ever strike a deal with DirectTV, I'm switching to DirectTV

    I have the unlimited plan from metropcs and i turn on the wifi share on my phone so it becomes a router. Then i use my laptop at home or anywhere i want to use the internet.
    If i want to watch tv i turn on one of the many free retro stations or pbs or foreign networks i can get with my cheap 5 dollar antenna into a 20 dollar converter box with my old fashioned 36 inch mitsubishi tube set that imo looks smoother than most modern way too sharp lcd screens.

    Ha suckers!

    If i want a movie theres redbox or better yet 2 dollar showings at the regency in pasadena.
    Ok im cheap.
