That's what my bill is right now - $90.70 per month for Comcast TV+Internet.

I have all channels they offer on their extended basic package (no pay channels, like HBO or Showtime, but I get Fox News, HGTV, Disney, etc.).

I'm still renting the cable modem for $3/mo., which I need to address at some point. I rented it because I knew I was the first one in my cluster of homes to get a cable modem and I thought there might be problems and I didn't want them blaming a third-party cable modem. And I was right - there were problems initially. It didn't work at all. They couldn't blame the modem becase it was theirs, so they blamed my wiring. They came out and ran a home run back to where it came in the house and it still didn't work. They tracked it down to a problem at a pole. It took about a week to get it resolved initially, but since then, it's been flawless for over 2 years.

I'd like to get Digital Cable for the inDemand features, but I don't like the idea of the set top box.

Question, with all your stuff, do you have to have a landline for the digital cable to hook in to? I got rid of mine and it was a pain in the butt with satellite to not have it. Couldn't order pay-per-view or get updates. Didn't really want pay-per-view as we often get rental incentives from the local stores that offer 3 for $0.99/each for 5 days on new releases (DVD and VHS).
