 "Fast & Cheap"
 "TV service has improved, but still has more to go."
 "Verizon is addressing the TV infancy with remarkable speed. Fastest and least expensive service available, if it is."

I have the triple play package with 20/5 internet and Extreme HD.
I had the triple play with Comcast with their base service (4/.386?). I should note that the upgrade from 10/2 to 20/5 on FIOS only cost $5's, so it was obviously worth it.
The price difference? For the 1st three months, ~$60's, there after, ~$30's. That includes networked cable boxes, so I now have 1,900 channels in the bedroom adn access to all the DVR'd programs on my LR box.
The install does take 6 hours, but the installer was a good guy who put everything where ever I asked, and made sure everything worked before he left. He also seemed generally excited with the service himself, although he complained a lot about how Verizon treats their union.
With Comcast's TV service getting worse for us, the choice to switch was easy, especially when they refused to re-up me for the triple play discount, which Verizon will do for you every year.
