I didn't realize how spoiled I was with Adelphia in Palm Beach; NFLN was part of extended cable (not the sports pkg). Moved to Charlotte and was stuck with TW service in my apt. TW serivce was $45 more per month than Adelphia AND required the HD teir to get all the HD channels I had with Adelphia.
Switched last week to Direct TV; get dozens of HD channels now, plus all the channels I had with TW, and NFLN and NFL ticket. I was dumb to wait so long. TW and NFL are entrenched in their positions, and the TW support is HORRIBLE here. Called 6 times for Cable internet support or package changes, and the completely %&()#$%-up everything each time I called. The topper was hearing the girl go, "Uh-oh, I don't think I should have done that." And then, "do you still have any cable?" Nope - she managed to cancel my service instead of adding HBO. Took her 105min to fix it. Good flippin riddence.
