They are not doing much of a job of disrupting the tv part of the deal. $120/mo with Comcast gets you the same channels, Internet, dvr, and telephone service with no contract. They also have customer service. When you call Comcast about a service outage, they prorate it every single time.
The real disruption here is free Internet. And for that I tip my hat to google.
Disruption to cable would be a la carte channel selection in any market.

- jonknee 14y agoNo, the real disruption here is speeds 50x faster without any caps. There is no comparison with Comcast, but their fast package of 105/10 Mbps is $199.95 a month. Yes, 10 megabits of upload... They have a limited available tier of 305/65 Mbps (FWIW this plan is a day old and probably to fight FiOS Quantum, it used to be 50Mbps) which runs $299.95. http://www.comcast.com/internet-service.html http://www.comcast.com/internet-service.html tl;dr Comcast is a joke.
- repsilat 14y agoAnother point of difference is that Google's $120 plan comes with a free Nexus 7 and 2TB of storage.
- Scene_Cast2 14y agoThe idea is that TV is "obsolete" because of the Internet (see Hulu, Netflix, etc).
