But now that I can get Netflix, Youtube, and Hulu on the 360 I am seriously questioning my need for subscription television.

But hey, 4.6% isn't bad compared to the 77.5% hike we've gotten from BG&E for energy, thanks to our Democrats in the MD government.]]>Oct 8th 2008 8:55PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/Oct 8th 2008 9:07PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/
As mentioned in the article, my internet price didn't budge.

This sucks! My overall bill is like $10 more now. Guess it is time to threaten to leave so I can get a better price.]]>Oct 8th 2008 9:08PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/
I know it's not directly CE-related as such but you don't think our Govs are (now repeatedly) throwing hundreds of billions of $ around and it's not going to effect the value of our money/currencies do you?

Just as property prices have taken a dive so the value of money itself is going to take a dive to reflect the losses on the commodities (like property) on which it and our economies were valued.

Take a little advice, try to owe little or nothing and have what you need now cos prices are about to make life a lot tougher for many of us.
Seriously, hold on to your hats tight, this one is going to be lengthy, painful & messy - and it's yet to really even get going. ]]>Oct 8th 2008 9:15PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/Oct 9th 2008 8:52AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/08/comcast-jacking-up-cable-rates-4-6-on-average/
