Re: Pay for this?

They are trying to reduce their bandwidth costs at the expense of the ISP's bandwidth costs. ... Of course, net neutrality could alter that equation if it ever passes.
The builders of the network are risking billions of share holder dollars. There is no way they will permit leaches to suck them dry. Pass laws that prevent network providers from making a sufficient return on investment and the investment will stop.

Define sufficient, and compare that to their earnings statements. All the more reason to go Muni. break-even is good enough.

Re: Pay for this?

Even if you are paying less that you are now... Good justification.

Which telco are you invested in?

Tempting offer! I'll have to pass though.

I've recently given up throwing money away.
