My Cable operator provides very good service, good picture clarity with a very low monthly subscription. I have lived in Delhi,Chennai and Bangalore and had cable connections there. They were all rowdies and was monopolizing the area and was looting people with so called crap service(that was some years back and the scenario might have changed after the entry of DTH). Now I am in Kerala and the cable operator here is superb, especially the customer service. (cant compare as I have not yet experienced the customer service of the DTH providers) . The cable is economical also, where else in the world you will be able to watch 120 channels including all pay channels for Rs 165/- per month.
