Knology HD, anyone using it?

[Bill]

Due to poor service, I'm considering switching from Mediacom to Knology for both INTERNET and Cable TV. Anyone out there using the Knology HD package? How is the line up, is the picture quality as good as OTA and how's the service?

I dont believe that we ever had any issues with the knology hd channels; we ended up going with directv and basic cable for a few reasons, one being cost, others being the lack of sports packages, and lack of decent free on-demand programming. This was back in the fall. I still have the basic cable in case OTA reception dies, which it does frequently. If there were a way to get the knology HD without having to pay for their digital channels that I never watch I would gladly have it back. The picture on non-hd channels can be pretty poor. Ended up having to switch back to DSL internet because the traffic is so heavy in my area that I could get better speeds with dial up. Was told that they are upgrading everything but could not say when they would get to my area; didnt have a choice - I work from home and need something that is speedy.

Hope this helps; dont have any experience of mediacom, but believe knology is probably the most reliable available here.
