The internet has changed everything. I already use VoIP in order to lesson my phone bill, it'll be sweet some day when we could do the same with our TV service.

Here’s what my family is looking for—a service that allows you to pick and choose only the channels you want.

We don’t have cable now because we don’t want to pay for bundled channel packages that force you to support garbage like the gay channel, MTV, etc.

I check every week at the ATT website to see if I can get UVerse.

My daughter has it and loves it!

Well this will only work for a few of us. The US is still a 3rd world country when it comes to infrastructure issues like area coverage with broadband internet. In some rural areas in the south west people are glad to have a poor quality phone line you can run at 14k4 with your modem. This is something that should really CHANGE.

I figure if my cable company switches to IPTV over the existing line I can probably get a lot higher quality HDTV. I don’t care about interactivity. TV/movies are a passive activity.
