I guess service quality depends on geographic region. I have been a subscriber of Comcast's digital service for at least two years. The receiption is always clear on all channels. Never have I had a problem with reception during bad weather. The only time in the past year I had to call for Comcast tech support, I got a human being on the phone within five minutes to help with a cable modem problem. As a result of their help, the problem was resolved quickly.
