I don't even see how Cable vs. DSL is still even a debate.
It has nothing to do with which is better, it has to do with which ISP you are using.
Do they cap your upload? Do they cap your download? What is the initial speed they give you? Does its quality fade at any time? What's the price?
I've seen some ISP's DSL better than some ISP's cable, and some cable better than some DSL.
