Re: Pick the lesser of two evils... There's more to an ISP than raw speed. More important than ever? Perhaps.
In the GVRD [Regional District], there are two major service providers.
Shaw. Cable. Telus. Telephony.
If you cannot get service with one major carrier, you'll probably default to the other carrier.
There is no Comcast/SBC/RoadRunner/OptimumOnline/Cox/Adelphia/Charter.....
I know I'm generalizing, but kids want their media, and they choose Shaw. In fact, Shaw targetted this commercials with youth saying, "I can download faster.....etcetra....."
Of course, Cable did premier first [Rogers/Shaw - @Home/Wave]
Shaw has an advantage over Telus, and that is speed [Throughput].....Oh wait..... That could also read, "Shaw had an advantage over Telus" |
