Best Internet Service Provider?

Well if you want broad band you have 2 choices Verizon DSL and Whoever your cable company is

I prefer Time Warner, but as far as I know our only options in the hood are cablevision or satellite. I finally caved and had cablevision installed last week, and the guy installing the cable and I spent 10 min talking about why cablevision sucks, and how the installation gent is trying to get a job with Time Warner. Hah.

As for the net, people on this board keep saying we can get Verizon DSL, but when I plugged my addy in to their website, they said service was not available in the nabe yet. Perhaps I just live on the wrong side of the street.

Just to follow up on this:

Apparently the apartments next to me, above me, and below me can all get Verizon DSL because they are all lucky enough to live in apartments where at some point in the past, someone installed a verizon phone line. The current residents may not use these phone lines (and in turn, do not have to pay for them), but because the lines were installed, they can receive Verizon DSL.

I, on the other hand, live in an apartment that has never had a verizon phone line, so in order for me to get Verizon DSL I have to also purchase and maintain a Verizon phone. Lame.
