One thing that TWNYC doesn't readily admit to is that they have to allow other broadband providers access to their cable. If you insist on hearing about Earthlink rates (rather than the RCN(?) deal) they will probably 'fess up to something cheaper. Plus, the friendly cable guy will probably hook up 'over the air TV' via cable (no monthly - but all the TW paperwork will be done right and he'll have $20 in his pocket).

Interesting... I used to get Earthlink over TWC cable but abandoned it to get TWC's WideBand service (had to switch to RoadRunner). Earthlink does not (or didn't at the time) have anything close to those speeds. Still, I've haggled TWC down before by trying to cancel services, won't hurt to try again.
