Re: I had to laugh at Comcast's Response on Upload

"Oh get real(cable companies) if you asked your subs what they'd like, i bet a majority of them would say more upload."

Care to place that bet?

Maybe people around here and a small portion of the tech geeks out there, but I would GLADLY take you up on that bet.

On my own little test of, oh 5 years worth of contacts, I can tell you that people are happy with 1) how "fast" their pages load and how fast they can download their music and email attachments.. and then 2) a lower price.

Many people, asked if there were slower speeds/price plans available. These people, so you know, ranged from the poor areas to the very wealthy areas. Yes, believe it or not, even those with money don't really care to pay $42.00 for broadband.. hell, most of the people WITH money were rather frugal and didn't purchase as much cable offerings as one would think.

This is from first hand experience. Also, yea, there are many studies out there, not to mention hard statistics, that shows the actual usage on the networks.
