Hopefully there won't a choice between Cable TV and Internet connectivity
soon (they will come arrive together, on the same physical medium);  the
choice will be whether to connect or not connect at all :-)
 
The University and the City are exploring working together as part of the
City's upcoming cable tv refranchise, and being able to deliver cable tv
*and* Internet access to Miami University students, staff and faculty in
their homes (whether residence hall rooms on campus or apartments off
campus) and to Oxford residents in their homes, helping to bring town and
gown together electronically.
