They are awful. We also are a customer of Comcast in Bedford, NH. I have high definition in both places. I got a new TV which can use a Cable Card instead of another box. I called comcast to get the prices and then called Metrocast. This company is so over priced that they should be embarrassed. The standard high defininition package (offering)is poor at best. Comcast allows you to pick up your box and set it up for free. Metrocast won't allow that so you have to have a service call by a technician. Metrocast may advertise that the have X amount of HD channels but the reality is why would you need 3 CBS high definition channels? They all play the same show. I can only hope that Comcast acquires this company in the near future or I will be trading in my cable box for a dish.
