Our comparison is Comcast (same service plan) in MA-- and the rates are also fairly comparable


Point is -- don't fear MetroCast as we were led to believe !

I would agree. I had Comcast in MA for many, many years. While I might have some quibbles, Metrocast is comparable. I've had few/no issues to date.

There was a time when DSL could compete with broadband services. But no longer. If you want high bandwidth speed, DSL (Fairpoint) is not the answer.
