Ah, no wonder they want to merge-- they'd be able to expand their territory even further than ever, and it looks like several people here do not like that, and I can't blame them, cause if the regulators approve this, many of us are screwed, myself included, because my next Comcast bill just arrived today, and it's finally stabilized, and if this goes through, I could be paying a LOT more.

Well, we'll wait and see if they win the regulatory approval from antitrust regulators. In any event, if they do win the regulatory approval, I'll put a stake in the hope that the prices will not increase due to a possible grandfather clause.

Did you see the part where NBC customers had the exact same thing happen?

Yes, I read that part, but there may be different circumstances all around this time. We'll see.

Yes, we will, but I somehow feel that they won't keep the pricing that Time Warner Cable has now, and will increase those prices.

I hope it'll be the opposite, but we'll have to prepare for the worst case scenario!

I just got done reading the CNN link provided before it got deleted, and it doesn't look good. It appears Comcast has a desire to bully everyone else, and that may not be a good thing.
