"Anyone who pays only one fee for cable internet + cable TV combined, what is your monthly charge ? Is it a rip off to have to sign up for cable TV for one fee and then another fee for cable modem - totalling about $85 per month?"

QuietWon,
If you get cable modem service, it makes sense to buy TV at the same time. Speaking from experience, it's priced so the consumer knows it's ridiculous NOT to go with the entire package. The charge is $70/month for both services. But as an added incentive, they add all kinds of installation costs if you are not willing to get both TV and Internet at the same time.

I'm sure once AT&T gets the Roadrunner local cable phone service running, that it will cost next to nothing to add local phone service too. Then I expect GTE will be next cut a deal that also involves local phone service. Isn't competition great for the consumer?
