    Comcast Low Data Caps Hurt Competing Video Providers

    Uverse doesn't enforce their data caps at all, which the #1 reason I have them over Comcast. But when Google fiber completes their rollout in Nashville, and if my neighborhood is included, I will switch to them. Uverse has no caps, but the speeds are all over the place depending where you...

    Comcast Dramatically Expanding Internet Usage Caps

    I have been looking at houses for the past few months, and one of my requirements is that it has decent (45 Mbps or better) internet service from Uverse. I did this so that I could avoid Comcast, because I use about 500 GB per month (according to my router) and don't want data caps. I will...

    'Steve Jobs' Movie Bombs

    I saw it Saturday night with my wife, and I understand why it is struggling. I think it is very well acted and has great dialog, but it doesn't make Steve Jobs a very likable character. It focuses primarily on the hour before three product launches, and I am not sure how many audience members...

    Google Fiber Planned For Irvine, Louisville, and San Diego

    I will just be happy when it starts rolling out in Nashville. If you are in these newly announced cities be prepared to wait at least a year.

    Apple Hopes To Charge $40 For TV Subscription Service

    Do these cheap cable packages include HD for every room in the house, or do they charge extra for HD and for additional TVs? If this Apple package is anything like SlingTv (but hopefully a lot better), you can watch it in HD on any device that supports it. Cable and satellite companies like...

    America's ISPs Suck, And AT&T Sucks Worst

    Uverse internet has been great for me as well. Unlike Comcast, I have had no outages for years. I also get 75 Mbps/7.5 Mpbs download/upload speeds, though those speeds are very neighborhood oriented in my area of Nashville. The max speeds vary from place to place, whereas Comcast can give you...

    House Passes Permanent Ban On Tax For Internet Service

    This law has nothing to do with purchases made over the internet. Those will be taxed as usual based on existing laws. This is only about taxing internet access.

    Steam Now Offers Refunds For Any Reason

    Is the refund still just credit to your Steam account? That is the thing I don't like about it. I was able to get a refund recently, but that money is just waiting there.

    TiVo Says It Can Mimic Aereo without Ending Up in Court

    I already use a Tablo to stream OTA content to my phones, tablets, computers, and TVs. I can use it's Tablo Connect feature to stream to my devices away from home as well. It's perfectly legal because I am just using an antenna in my own home. Tivo can already do a lot of that as well. I...

    HBO Orders Bar To Stop Showing Game of Thrones

    If you are in your own residence, you can have as many tvs and speakers as you want. This law is to prevent public viewing outside of homes without getting the proper rights.

    HBO Orders Bar To Stop Showing Game of Thrones

    As long as you watch a show or sporting event in your own home, don't charge admission, and aren't projecting it on a screen outside your home (so that the general public can see it), you are protected from copyright law, no matter how big a screen you have...

    Do You Have a Case on Your Smartphone?

    Both my son and I have a nice inexpensive rubber case for our Moto G (2014) phones. He drops his phone all the time (it seems), and it had protected it well. I also like that our cases have kickstands, which are nice to use with the dual speakers on these phones.

    Comcast's New Broadband Service Is Twice As Fast As Google Fiber

    You might want to consider Uverse. I am in Bellevue, and I am getting my 45 Mbps service upgraded to 75 Mbps service next week. All with no enforced caps.
