Mediacom next in line to hike cable rates
Earlier this month, Comcast announced that it would be boosting cable rates by around 4.6%. Now, Mediacom is joining the fun by pumping up the prices in various locales around the country. We're seeing a number of local news outlets putting out information that the carrier will be raising rates in their neck of the woods, with Cedar Rapids, Iowa expecting a 7.2% increase on its mainstay Family Cable package next month. Additionally, the greater Quad Cities area will see a similar change beginning in mid-November, and everyone in Princeton / Caldwell County, Kentucky will be paying more in a few weeks as well. We guess someone has to pay for all those huge HD expansions, right? At least we're only half kidding there.Read - Cedar Rapids announcement

I hope they are raising them in Kentucky. Its one thing for them to add 20 in Kentucky. We up here in Iowa will be lucky to see one or two of them. Heavily considering the move to DirecTv or DishNetwork.
