    Comcast's Performance Internet is $74.95/month (plus equipment and fees) if you are not currently under a promo.

        Internet alone is $70 for us. Adding on hulu or netflix or amazon prime adds to cost. So yes it's a racket and about what a double play costs. We get local basic because it's $5 more a month for football and other sports on local channels.

        I don't get why people think they are getting a deal with internet only and then paying for all extras streaming. it's not a deal.

        I wish I could buy disney for the kids but they don't sell it solo yet. Just waiting.

          Lets see, Internet is 40/mo, Netflix is 10. OTA (w/DVR) is 0. DirectTV Now is 35 (soon to have DVR). My total monthly is $85. I can watch virtually anything I want at anytime and anywhere in full HD. I can add HBO for 5/mo too.

          Dropped Hulu as other services cover everything they had minus some exclusives that I have no interest in. IMO 70/ for internet is WAY too much but I imagine your options may be limited.

            No other options. Comcast is my monopoly choice. Great how I get the rate they determine as the only choice available.
