I have Rogers Digital Cable
My monthly bill for cable/cable modem is $120 or so. I don't watch a crazy amount of TV, but I'm happy with what I get.
I watch a lot of MTV/MTV2, and the movie networks are sweet. Moreso for HBO shows (Six Feet Under, Carnivale, Sopranos, etc) than the movies even. Showcase is still on season #1 of Six Feet Under, while season #3 ended about 6 months ago on the movie networks.

if you pick your channels well the savings are worth it. I have rogers and very few complaints. Price is a little high but highspeed makes it worth it.

I have Rogers Hi Speed Lite cable and Internet. It's 100.50 a month. I love it. Movies Movies Movies, so many movies. Christ, even without TMN, I'd pay that much for hte joy I get from IFC, Scream, Documentary and National Geographic.
Scream, of course, is my all-time favourite TV Channel. Except for that incredibly annoying host. I want her job.

Video on Demand is fantastic . Point and shoot , pick from different genres , watch at any time , prices are similiar to that of dvd rentals . Digital stereo , great picture , etc etc .
Prior to signing up with the full digital package , i had separate cable bill - say 80 channels , and internet bill . Both totaled around 92.00 per plus tax .
The complete bundle package with movie add on , digital this and that blah blah discounted the internet 5 dollars a month , and of course the full bundle offers a good savings .
130.00 taxes in . In fact only spending 20.00 per month more on cable/net/ bill - but spending 30-40.00 less at blockbuster .
me up 20 bucks . im cheap prick

this is about what ours is too.
and i like animal channel !!
we also get leafs channel, NHL channel and the Action Channel
i like that you can rotate which of the 5 specialty channels you get so if you see something you like you can switch them around over the internet.
we've had a couple of problems with quality cause we live in an old area, but rogers has made a lot of efforts to fix it and given reimbursments to us when it wasn't working.
never had a problem with the internet service. always been fast and reliable.
I get the Leafs/NHL and the Discovery and National Geographic channels. Sweet stuff.
I've been trying to rotate my channels on the net for a few months now, but every time I try it I get an error message. Are you able to do it?
I was hoping to pick up the Documentary channel, although there's a free preview on now until the end of the month.
