I started w/ roadrunner when I lived in Hawaii. I had AT&T when I lived in Ohio, until comcast bought them out. I then had comcast in Pittsburgh for about 8 months.
It started out fine, then it started to get slow. Yeah, everyone on my street started to suck up the bandwidth from 5 PM - 12 PM everyday.
I could NEVER get through to tech support.
I had to pay an extra $5/month for a second IP address. (Yeah, I could have bought a Linksys router, but I was cheap...)
I switched to Verizon DSL, and I can't believe how much faster it is.
Now, the point of my story...
When I called cc to complain their service sucked and it was SLOW, they wanted to charge me $50 to have a tech come out and put an amp on my line. They were still going tocharge me $50+ per month.
When I called them to tell them tcancel my service, they IMMEDIATELY told me I could have their internet for $30/ month. I told them no dice and kept the DSL.
DSL rocks. BUT, if you have CC, call them and tell them you want to cancel your service. They'll drop their price in a NY minute.
