Bummer. I decided to take the easy way out and just get the next step up to the broader package of cable channels. Plus I still could explore the free streaming channels as I wanted or even activate pay streaming when I want to explore. That mix has worked well. Simple, one stop access for TV, with occasional steaming. BUT, as for all others, the price creeps up. Sigh.



I wasn't sure if $90 a month for just cable TV was the going rate. It seems so. I'm not looking to fight a running battle with Atlantic Broadband to knock $10 off my bill for a year or two. Seeing the teaser rates, I was hoping it might be a permanent $20 drop but it doesn't seem likely.


For cable and internet, expect to pay $150-$200 (unless on a teaser intro rate). If you want a bunch of premium stuff, you will pay more. If you want to stream with YouTube TV or other, you can save $50 with a little remote clicker inconvenience. It’s a pretty standard equation - in NH, MA, FL or other.
