Verizon is rasing prices on its standalone TV FiOS service, says BusinessWeek.

If you’re currently paying $39.95, you’ll be paying $42.99 starting next year. If you’re paying $42.99 now, there will be no rate increase. New customers will start at a rate of $47.99.

The increase apples only to those customers who have just TV from Verizon. If your service is bundled the pricing is more complex.
