I called VZ directly and SHOWED them that they have fewer (AND MORE EXPENSIVE) on demand selections and they said "nothing I can do sir, I'll escalate it to dept. X (programming?)." CV on demand is free with each service (ie HBO on demand comes w/ HBO, etc, Optimum on demand is totally free, Wifi is free). It's ok. Nothing wrong with FIOS really, but your post is a true example of life in the VZ fan girl bubble. Of course, Dolan is the devil, but VZ is a corporate and consumer saint. I remember their techs chanting exactly that on the picket line for months. Puh-leeze.

No! My going back has not one bit to do with any of his insane faux-techie arguments. I want this to be a "which one sucks less" thread, not a "which one is mythically better" thread.

In that case, they all suck equally, each with their own issues lol. They're all overpriced. In Florida cable is free unless you want premium channels.
