  1. Don't Kill My Speeds on Time Warner, Comcast in Deal to Buy Adelphia · · Score: 1

    This could suck for cable modem users. Comcast offers 4Mbit/sec where Time Warner offeres 5Mbit/sec. Comcast premium service is only 5Mbit/sec where Time Warner's is 8Mbit/sec plus you get a wireless router. In Minneapolis/St Paul, the Time Warner cable system is far more advanced then the Comcast system (even though Comcast has a larger service area). Time Warner has the largest pipe in the midwest (even if every single one of their customers was downloading at full speed at the same time they'd be using less then 60% of their pipe). I work for Time Warner but live in Comcast area. I'd have to say all cable services suck but Comcast's service when I've had problems has been much worse then when I lived in a Time Warner area. Lets hope this doesn't affect the service users recieve. There's plenty more info we've gotten on this story which I'm not at liberty to go into but it could be a winding road ahead...
