I haven't lived in Anchorage for almost a year, but from what I remember, you only really have one option for cable TV: GCI. You can do the satellite services, but because of the snow and ice in the winter you may have a lot of interrupted service (all my friends who tried it did). If you bundle with GCI you may be able to get a reasonable price, but they will fleece you on Internet usage. If you want DSL you can go to ACS. I believe they have phone and satellite TV service as well. Shop around the biggies: GCI, ACS, each of the satellite companies and Clear Wire (Internet). That would be your best bet.

Well...

Here's the GCI package rate page.

Here's the Anchorage cable/net listings.

Here are the phone companies in Anchorage.



I realize that you will have to go to each website individually or call them for their current prices to make a good comparison, but the work will be worth it in savings vs. amenties you desire, I'm sure.
