For what it's worth re: Comcast v. FSW: Starting in Februrary in Atlanta we are getting hit with a $5 rate increase, and FSW is moving to a higher tier of digital cable -- that's included with the rate increase. Whatever, at least it's still there.
Make sure you let them know how you feel about it-properly. A lot of people will complain about the $5 increase, so don't complain about that, just the tier change.
