Just switched from Cox to Verizon Fios and have been very disappointed in the television offering. Cox has a service called contour that allows you to watch on your computer and other devices. And it appears you can watch anything your subscription includes as long as you are at home. Now that I have switched to Fios, I can no longer watch local channels on my home computer. It appears that no "live" programming is available.
After my contract is up, it looks like I will be returning to Cox.
