Exactly. Around here, TWC is the frontrunner while AT&T, Dish, and
DirectTV don't even come close in comparison. That paried with the fact
that TWC doesn't limit bandwith, and the rest do.

Why do you need more than one if they connect over your network? Just
asking, seeing as though they're on Amazon for like ~$170 at the moment.

You have one hell of a setup! Noone in this house watches nearly enough TV
for me to go that far, though. But if one would suffice to watch on the 3
TVs in the house, I may very well be interested in this idea!
