I had that feeling last week that it was going to happen real soon. Comcast has some pretty bad customer service until you raise a lot of Cain with them then they get off their seats. I am sure they were feeling a lot of pressure from all their southern United States costumers.

I think DTV may finaly be feeling the heat now. I was going to go with Dish if DTV was not aboard by Aug 1.

After carefully considering the pros and cons written about on Elitedawgs, Comcast has chosen wisely.

Does this include Metrocast in Starkville? Not sure how Metrocast/Comcast are related or if they are completely separate.

Completely separate. Metrocast will have to get its own deal done.

That's what I was scared of. Metrocast is so terrible that I won't be surprised if they don't get a deal done

If they don't, they're losing an entire market.

Anyone heard anything about Pavlov Media? That's what I actually have. My girlfriend has Metrocast. As long as one of them picks it up then I'm good.

So they were planning on picking up the SEC Network and then sold to BCI? Not sure what that means in relation to how the SEC Network deal will be done

I updated my post. Hopefully that helps.

I guess I was just confused as to whether BCI buying Metrocast Mississippi will have any affect on the channel lineup. That's all

I assume not for this year

Metrocast will have it.

If in Starkville, you should already be looking into Cspire Fiber. Night and day.
