If Time Warner really wants to get better, they need to offer more channels, and more packages. I understand some of the rights they can't get, but some they can. They dont seem to be adding anything new anything soon either.
ESPN 2 HD and ESPNU will be coming later this year FWIW. NFL Network is in negotiations, they want more than ESPN to show 8 games a year. That is where the problem lies. The most rediculous thing is the Big Ten Network wants even more than the NFL network. I'd say FSN HD will be coming in the future also. NFL Sunday ticket will probably be the death of DirecTV. They will never make the money back they pay for the rights to be the exclusive carrier. As far as prices, Time Warner is pretty much on par with everyone else once you get past introductory rates. Then you figure that service calls are free and it really is a decent deal. TV is just a very expensive luxury. They
