heres thought for the brain...if you get cable, you can buy a TV Tuner for your PC which is really cheap on newegg.com and BAM you got internet and TV on your comp, no need to have a tv bill...atleast thats how it is with my ppl. but there not in your area code

at home I have Time Warner Roadrunner. they are pretty stable, and very fast. We got it as part of a bundle which includes Digital Cable, Roadrunner, and Digital Phone. I think all of it is around $100-120 a month, free long distance. So its actually a pretty sweet deal. i think we were paying something like $170 a month for standard cable, telephone, long distance, and dial-up internet.

Look into package deals from your phone/cable providers. I now just use the free internet in my dorm room, but its kinda slow sometimes.
