Assuming you mean Internet? You could try a satellite internet provider. I'm currently using one and my neighbor like excede (I believe that is what it is). I don't have really high speed but she does and she has no complaints streaming things...unless the weather is really bad. I am geographically limited but I will consider keeping the satellite option (where I can) as I move around.
Yes, internet. I'm a speed junkie, so satellite wouldn't do it for me. Comcast gives me a solid 50 Mbps, so there's really nothing wrong with the service other than the price, customer service, and the fact that they're assholes.
I just think it's disgusting that I live IN THE CITY of Seattle yet only have one option when it comes to internet. The city hands out monopolies to these service providers presumably for a little cash in the back pocket of the bureaucrat in charge.
Ha, you'd die with the satellite option I have. What you described is not just disgusting, I think it is legitimized corruption. I'm sure there is a Stossell episode somewhere dedicated to tearing this topic apart.

Comcast as a company is horrible.
