Go for it... we did and never missed having 300 channels of crap. Anything we want to see can be found online.

As far as ATT, don't forget they have the attitude "We don't care, because we don't have to." Terrible customer service, going all the way back to my college years when they cut off my phone service because the check I wrote for the bill was 25 cents short, and billed me a huge reactivation fee (this was before they made it illegal to deactivate for a single late payment), and including last year when I decided to give them another try and signed up for dsl with a free modem. When the installer came out while I wasn't home, he said we didn't need a modem, and didn't give us one, but then the service didn't work. Since I didn't get the modem "at installation" they would happily sell me one for $50, even though their technician made the decision to not leave the free modem. They, in their terrible customer service attitude, wouldn't budge on that $50 charge for the free modem, so I cancelled the service and regretted giving ATT a second chance. They truly just don't give a shit about the customer.
