Is cable TV still worth what you're paying for it? > We have Storer Cable in Columbia. The Basic rate is something like $13.00 and premium (HBO, TMC, SHOWTIME, DISNEY) are $10.00 each. We are probably going to drop Disney, as there isn't enough for our 4 1/2 year old to watch. I definately think the basic cable is worth the money. One advantage that we now can get both D.C and Baltimore network stations. One or the other always seems to be pre-empting the regular programming, so that is a plus. The other advantage, if you have kids, is Nickelodian! There is programming for every age, and their latest Sunday evening offering, National Geographic Explorer, is fantastic! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lowrey "To vacillate or not to vacillate, that is the question.... ....or is it?" ...!( be those of the author and not necessarily those of his most eminent employer. ]
