Try Time Warner Cable, Marcie! :) What the others have said here is true. Especially not getting the local channels. Additionally, most satellite companies want you to sign a contract - never the case with Time Warner. Also, you'll never be charged for a service call if you have cable. Many advantages!

The only disadvantage is Time Warner doesn't offer NFL Sunday Ticket, so we had to (*GASP*) buy a dish when we left Wisconsin so we could still watch the Packers. However, Time Warner DOES offer other sports packages, depending on your area...we were able to pick up the MLB baseball package this year.

Let us know what you decide!
