That's crazy, kyo! Hope that person realizes they're a dummy now! 
Anyway... today, I got the digital boxes from Blue Ridge Communications, and was notified about some "Changes".
Let's see what the changes are!
1 - Due to "Customer Feedback", the boxes they send to customers will NO LONGER be charged a rental fee after 2 years of use. However, if an additional box is needed by the customer, that new box WILL charge a rental fee after 2 years of usage.
^This is good. Very good. A nice thing for them to do after they earned their 1-star rating every day of the year, and felt the heat from many customers.
2 - The maximum data usage caps will be increased by 50GB. No internet speed increases yet.
^ They used the word "Yet" with the speed increases. Hopeful that they do come around to helping us out...
Also, the data usage cap increase is nice. I've come dangerously close to going over it a few times while uploading to Youtube, so the increase should help a lot!
3 - The quality of all channels will be increased, due to the switch to 100% digital. Just install the box, and it'll make things look better.
^This is actually true. VERY true. I installed the boxes, and I had 720p on every channel! I have no 1080p-capable TVs, so that's the best it can get!
Zero static on any channel, even the TV guide channel on channel 97, which was always the worst!
4 - Free Universal controller provided with every box. Just set it up, and pair the TV to your digital box with the remote, so it doesn't affect anything else.
^Also true. And the controller came with batteries!
5 - Activation can also be done online instantly, as well as on the phone!
^I activated both boxes with literally one click. They turned on in 5 seconds, and I was actually surprised at how quick it really was!
Congratulations, Blue Ridge Communications. You've earned yourself some good press today.
Increase the base internet speeds a bit, and you might get a 2-star rating!
I'm happy with them today, guys. Very happy.
