Yesterday I decided that I need to change to another television provider because my current provider, Time Warner Cable, has been in a dispute with CBS for more than a month.
The straw that broke the camel's back was my inability to see the US Open Tennis matches over the weekend. The Tennis Channel and ESPN 2 had weak offerings. I also miss 60 Minutes and the CBS Evening News.
But, lucky for me, the two media giants somehow got it figured out and made a deal late yesterday. I'm saved.
Saved from the ordeal of changing from one company to another. I think they make it hard just so you won't change. A change would involve a change of equipment (modem, DVR, wifi router), change of all my internet settings (how would I figure this all out) and a change to the Slingbox which we use to watch US programs while away from home. I'm sure the change would have taken weeks and we would have been without one service or another for a long time. We now get TV, internet/wifi and phone service from one company. Maybe that's a mistake, but I'm willing to live with it now that we have CBS again.
