    Fios vs Xfinity

    I have been an xfinity customer for the last 12 years. I just switched to Fios and so far I love it.

    Anyone have their opinions about either? I did a google search to compare, but feel most of those reviews are either fake, or biased.

    Internet seems to be a lot faster, and the TV picture seems clearer. Its going to take a while to get used to the new menu and new channel lineup.

    Don't have experience with either, but it's a fact we are charged way more for shittier internet here than a lot of other countries. Total ripoff.
    Priorities:
    1. Yankees lose
    2. Red Sox win

    It's pretty easy to figure out. Very easy to cast to your TV, and if you have a smart TV, you can get an app for it

    Honestly, I've found both to be a rip off. I've been rolling with no cable and been watching sporting events on Reddit with no issues.

    TV services are the same. You can't really choose the wrong provider as you get the same channels. Back then DSL was really awful so I switch to cable, which completely fixes the problem. Fios wasn't a thing yet until 2010s here.

    I recently bargain with Comcast and got my bill reduced by $50 monthly for the next 2 year.

    I literally wouldnt even be able to figure out how to do that. Younger guys are so much more tech savvy.

    Seriously though, can you PM me how to watch live sporting events on reddit?

    LOL, yeah.....but how do you do it?

    I quickly looked, do you have to subscribe to it? How does it work? You can PM, or write out so others who are clueless like me can follow along. Please and thanks bud.
