Dunno. This is Comcast? Where I am (Cablevision) the emta comes with the service. I'm not sure if I could even supply my own and even if they would let me they make changes all the time. So if the emta were mine I would be responsible for replacing it each time.

So my opinion is as long as they own it, if it craps out it's their problem. Don't make it yours.
