It is completely dependent on your local area, as the quality will depend on many factors relating to your area. For instance I live in Austin Texas and while it still baffles me that central Austin doesn't have fiber yet, we do get very good cable service here and I never have had problems that can't be fixed. I would argue this is because this is a very tech savvy city and TWC cant get away with bullshitting their customers. I have never had a problem with them, though, and the only reason I am currently considering someone else is because I want to get internet only and for cheaper.
Austin also has very good cable runs through out the city. Not so much on all the outskirts, but that is typical anywhere in America it seems. Boonies always seem to have older runs for whatever reason. Here, though, they also have fiber. I can only guess to why that is, but it is kind of baffling.
Anyway, sorry for my ranting. It depends on your area who is best. I like TWC where I live, but other people (online, generally speaking) can't stand them. I used to work for several cable companies in an outsourcing company so I know from that as well- it's entirely area dependent. Ask some neighbors and friends around where you live to see if you can get a feel for what they think. You can often also check local Yelp listings or other things like that online just to see what people in your area think of different companies.
One thing that resonates, though, is everyone seems to hate Comcast. I've never used them, though, so I can't speak to that.
