Broadband Internet

Comcast was sounded in 1963 as a cable operator and today they are America's largest provider of cable and broadband services. They have a focus on broadband cable, commerce, and content. They have over 24 million cable customers, 14 million Internet customers, and 5 million voice customers. They are headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and they are traded on the Nasdaq.

They have over 100,000 employees nationwide and service customers in 39 states and the District of Columbia.

Comcast has come a long way from when they started back in 1963. With their new digital offerings, customers are able to get the best clear picture quality and sound. The advancement in technology also makes it possible for customers to enjoy television programming easier and more affordably.

Comcast's digital cable television service now comes with digital video recording technology which allows you to digitally record and store your favorite television shows and view them whenever you want. Another popular feature is the parental guide function that gives parents the ability to have total control over what programming is watched on the units, even if the parents aren't home. They accomplish this by blocking shows via ratings, titles, channels, or content. There is an on-screen index that makes this easier for parents.

Comcast's Internet has also come a long way since it's inception. Although not as old as the other services Comcast provides, Comcast has been able to make the high-speed internet 70-100 times faster than standard dial-up internet connections. This makes it easy to download as well as stream video and play games online.

With their voice product, they offer features such as caller ID, call forwarding, and voicemail all at no extra charge. The customers money goes a lot further than ever before.
