2 edits | Time Warner = stupid What the heck is Time Warner just thinkng? Seriously. How dumb do you have to be to set that kind of a cap on a 100MB/sec connection here you know that the average user will hit that cap in matter of a few days with that kind of speed...
Even if I had a 50mb/sec connection, I'd hit the cap in matter of a few days too. This whole metered blling is the dumbest idea ever.

Adapt to the new world, deliver a product that people want. Raising prices and screwing over the people who ARE still paying you money is just bad business.

| The bandwidth crisis Hobbs is talking about is their own problem because they won't upgrade to DOCSIS 3. TW could upgrade to DOCSIS 3 at the rock bottom price of $20-50 per subscriber, that cost would be immediately recouped by the profit they make off their RR service. The real problem is that TW doesn't want to spend a dime of the $4 billion in profit they are already making each year on RR customers... they want to create a new profit stream that will support their upgrades to DOCSIS 3, so it doesn't hurt their current financial profit margins. For a little more on that, continue reading...
So I looked at TW's 10-K form and noticed something interesting... their cost to provide broadband service has decreased about 11% since the year before. Yes, you heard that right.
In 2007, TW made $3,730 Million, on high speed data alone, and then had to turn around and spend $164 Million to support the cost of the network. 2007 total profit on high speed data: $3.566 Billion
In 2008, TW made $4,159 Million, on high speed data alone, and then had to turn around and spend $146 Million to support the cost of the network. 2008 total profit on high speed data: $4.013 Billion
It cost TW 11% less money in 2008, to keep their network running, than in 2007. Their cost to deliver network connectivity to each user has dropped as they highlight here:
"High-speed data costs consist of the direct costs associated with the delivery of high-speed data services, including network connectivity costs. High-speed data costs decreased primarily due to a decrease in per-subscriber connectivity costs, partially offset by growth in subscribers and usage per subscriber."
TW had 7,620 Million customers in 2007, and now 8,444 Million customers in 2008. An 11% growth with an 11% decrease in network and support operating expenses. Not too shabby TW! Anyone with half a brain can easily tell from those numbers that TW is not only doing well, but they are doing better than ever.
So... tell me TW, how is flat rate (unmetered) service no longer financially viable if you're making more profit now than ever before, as your cost to provide service continues to decline?
TW can't deliver hard numbers because there aren't any that support their BS plan to meter and bill overages. Simple as that.
Think of all those users out there that have been downloading files and streaming movies off netflix in 2008 and using "more bandwidth than ever before" according to TW. Yet all the while TW's bottom line cost to support the network has dropped 11% while profits are up 11%. They should be overjoyed, not crying poverty. Why not use some of that healthy profit and actually upgrade the network for your subscribers needs, instead of forcing us to take 10 steps back and live in the virtual stone age.
Even bankrupt Charter has an upgrade plan in place for DOCSIS 3... and they aren't in anywhere near the financial standing that TW is. | |

| The cost per customer of $20 - $50 for the upgrade is just plain wrong.
It would cost that much for the DOCSIS 3.0 modem for each customer alone.
But they would also need to upgrade to new CMTS's in most cases where they are not deployed. And even if they don't have to upgrade the whole CMTS, they still have to upgrade the DOCSIS linecards in the CMTS, which DOCSIS 3.0 linecards aren't even yet available for the majority of CMTS's they use, VXR7246.
And on top of that, they would need to free up more analog channels for the DOCSIS 3.0 bonding to get the full bandwidth out of DOCSIS 3.0, which is the reason for upgrading in the first place.
That all ends up being more than $20 - $50 per customer. | |

| Re: Time Warner = stupid Well the cable companies here in the US are saying it's closer to $100, but it's somehow being done in many other countries for much less.
Sure if you, Joe the consumer go out to the store to buy a modem, it will easily cost you $50 for that modem, because you have to pay retail mark up. TW however, does not and I'm sure they get a reasonable discount since they can easily order a very large volume of modems at any given time. Things always cost much less in volume, so who's going to save more? Joe purchasing 1 modem, or TW ordering > 100,000?
I'm not asking for TW to drop everything they are doing and deploy DOCSIS 3.0 to 100% of their footprint in one month. I understand network upgrades take time and that it could take years for TW to deploy DOCSIS 3 across most of their network. All I'm say is they could at least get started.
I sure wouldn't build a next generation network tomorrow, and then 10 years down the line when customer demand outpaces my network capacity simply throw up my arms and say "I give up" and tell everyone to slash their usage or pay fines because I'm to cheap to give a damn about upgrading the network. That's just irresponsible.
I have no problem with TW making a profit, but how much is too much? They already have a 2700% profit margin on their RR service, and that's with the current flat rate model. Are they aiming for 5000%? How do you feel about paying 27 or even 50X more for your internet service than it's really worth? Maybe a few years from now we can look forward to paying $200-300 a month, just for our internet usage which actually only costs a few dollars a month to deliver, and by then it wouldn't even cost that much since bandwidth costs continue to drop. We've now entered the era of never ending price increases and profit margins.
I have no problems paying $40-50 a month like I do now, and TW's financial data shows that the cost of keeping their network online is in decline, not increasing as they claim. I don't know what kind of BS they are trying to feed us, but I know the truth.
I would support metered billing as long as it was fair. And by that I mean charging $30 a month for say a 10 Mbps pipe, and then bill all usage at 5 cents per GB. No caps, no limits, just bill usage starting with the first gigabyte at 5 cents a gig. That way, grandma would likely only pay $30.05, while Joe across the street may watch Netflix movies all month, and end up paying $40. That's how metered billing is suppose to work. Everyone pays for their fair share of network resources. If such a system existed, then all you would simply do is offer a few different baseline packages, where the only difference is the speed at which you connect and everyone pays the same, reasonable per GB rate for their bandwidth use. | |

| If was son necessary for metered billing why are they not doing in places that have competition with fios. They already had to bump up speeds to try to compete. Seems these folks would be burning up the bandwidth more than anyone else.
If they truly needed metered billing charge the $1. So anyone that uses less than 1 gig bill is $1. Those that use 45gig bill is $45. Also they should remove speed limits run the network wide open for everyone. Why should be pay more for less.
Its all lies.

A 10-15 dollar maintenance fee plus .25 cents per gig would seem fair.

Metered billing itself along with a cap is an admission that they as a company can't handle the volume on their network, and they have no intention of raising capacity (via upgrading their infrastructure) to accomodate for their oversold services.
TW is begging to be regulated with this broadband "extortion". Its stupid companies like this that command the presence of politicians!

| Re: Time Warner = stupid It's not a contract on the length of service, though - Time Warner does month to month stuff, at least on internet-only service.
Unfortunately, my only options are Time Warner, Windstream ADSL, and 3G wireless. I've had friends get horribly ripped off by Windstream (and they don't appear to offer DSL without the phone service anyway,) and I have a somewhat weak cell signal in my apartment (that kills my bandwidth unless I'm near my window.) So, I'm on Time Warner (but with Earthlink as the ISP instead of RoadRunner.)
I guess the other option is just leeching wifi off of all of my neighbors, or moving to somewhere that has more choice... | |

Sorry, not buying the argument that they could raise it by 2012 if they're making such stupid decisions right now. If you want to be an optimist they'll do something consumer-friendly, be my guest, but they're not demonstrating that behavior right now and I don't expect it to change.

| Outta Here The day Time Warner Cable starts those caps where I live will be the day I leave Time Warner Cable for good. After reading their statement, it's worse than I thought.
As if it justifies their plan, they claim that 30% of their users use less than 1 gb per month. The only way I can think of users using so little bandwidth, are users that either have no PCs, or for some reason are paying for service they no longer use (e.g. switched to FiOS but forgot to tell Time Warner to cancel). Either that, or Time Warner should as a public service call the police about these customers, because they may be deceased in their homes with nobody knowing. | |

| Time Warner IS Drinking The Kool-Aid And they are taking a page out of the very old AOL playbook when the 'net was billed either by the hour or by byte.
Now I am not one who likes AOL, but they did wake up and did finally offer unlimited internet access (dial-up speeds) which gave us the the means to get on-line today.
Time Warner in all their glee and glory do not and will not care what the end consumer has to say or complain about. We are nothing to them except their piggy-banks because we want internet service and they think they are the only players in town.
Well guess what TW, you're not the only player in town, and if that means I down grade my on-line connection to just 3.0 or 6.0mb down on a DSL service, then I and my money are gone.
Further, your "Customer Service" folks have tried repeatedly to up-sell on your Digital Cable service, meaning i have to shell out more money to because I have 5 TV's that would need boxes. Thanks but No Thanks. My Basic/Standard is fine, and no one really watches more than 5 or 6 different channels anyway.
So Time Warner, keep drinking the Kool-Aid and reading that very old AOL playbook, for in the end it will be you who will change your tune and beg for the customers who left you to "Please come back, we're sorry".

| Knock it off already RR!! Landel Hobbs: Stop bullsh!tting people and just admit you have no good reason for these caps other than to make your investors giddy with anticipation and bump up your exec compensation.
Is it coincidence that RR has recently added the new ultra-light tier and the alleged 100GB super-tier? No, it's a direct response to people's angst at your obvious money grab and an attempt to "give people what they want".
What people want is either the continuation of no caps or the implementation of REASONABLE caps such as those employed by other companies (hint: Comcast is 250GB without ridiculous overage markups).
You need to fire the idiot in your marketing department who thought it would be a good idea to base a broadband business model after cellular billing structures and do something innovative and competitive to put RoadRunner above the other companies in the same market (Another hint: adding caps and saying they're for 'fairness and equality' is not a good example).
Lastly, how do you expect anyone with any tech saavy to believe that caps and overages will help pay for DOCSIS 3.0 rollout when DOCSIS 3.0 will be utterly useless with the caps and overages you're promoting.
For the second time, pull your head out of your a$$, admit you screwed up, stop testing your ridiculous caps and find something else to set RoadRunner apart from others in the industry. Nothing good will come of this as you have pissed of customers, politicians, and journalists and you can't spin your way out of it.

Big question, do you want TWC to have the power to filter packets because they are ads and do it to the pages YOU visit? Do you want TWC to be a arbiter of what is allowed? To 'munge' a web page that is not theirs? Right now TWC is concerned with quantity of bits, not what those bits are.
You can control a lot of the ad flow by using ad-blockers. Often just disabling javascript will keep the page script from summoning ad content from those third party servers. | |
