High quality global journalism requires investment. Cablevision, the cable operator servicing New York and the north-east US, reported a loss of pay-television customers but a gain in high-speed internet customers, mirroring Thursday’s results from competitor Time Warner Cable.
Revenues were up 8 per cent from a year earlier at $1.67bn, but organic growth was nearly flat. Revenues from pay-television services were up despite a loss in subscribers in the past three months.
Cablevision added new internet customers, generating revenues from the segment with the addition of a new broadband operator. “Broadband results, increasingly the cornerstone service for all cable operators, were predictably strong,” said Bernstein Research analyst Craig Moffett.
But analysts said it was hard to assess the results because of Hurricane Irene, which disrupted service in Cablevision’s market and added to costs, and a labour strike by workers at Verizon, a competitor.

I just got this and can’t say it works all the time. It is working now very well. It lags the actual cable broad cast slightly. I had both on at the same time
I also read that fox kills streams as soon as it finds them. I don’t know, can’t say
adblock is an add on for firefox or IE that blocks unwanted ad’s on websites.
