| deflation Pricing per Mbps goes _down_ over time in this industry, which is why the telcos keep begging the govt to impose "mandatory price freezes" that allow the ILEC to avoid _dropping_ prices.
This is a similar strategy. Customers will be left in the dust -- if there's competition where they live. |

kudos:3 | While that may be true that prices tend to go down, I'm guessing you haven't lived in Qwest terriroty or have had their services before.
Qwest may have dropped the proice SLIGHTLY, it hasn't gone down hardly as much as other telco providers.

I realize you're just trolling (again), but you might want to try and at least pretend to be reasonable. |

I've avoided calling you a paid mouth piece, which you are, but yes... It's a fact! Tell me how your masters can avoid the fact that your prices do in fact suck!?
While all other providers were selling 1.5 DSL for $29.99 a month, Qwest was right up there at $54 for 256/256. Then, the great option of getting up to 640 came out.. whooopie!
Then, up to 1.5 came out and was supposed to save us money.. which it did until your masters forced us to purchase the dial up service which we don't need raising the bill again.
My up to 1.5 by 896 line costs me a nice $65.00 per month.
Troll? Yea... but I'd believe that would be you.
For your information, it was your own employees, DynoKnob, who introduced me to THAT slogan!
Say what you want, but the moment you call me a troll, it's on! Save your crap for someone else.
And for the record... the "drop" from $40 to $27.. shall I add all the traditional telephone small print? Shall I remind you that you get the "penalty" for not only bundling, but not having a "qualifying" phone product? It's bad enough that your masters require phone service for a discount, but a "QUALIFYING" phone service?
And you have the nerve to sit there in your chair and bitch about cable?
Don't even make me go down the history of Qwest and US West and all their problems. BBR would have to add more storage space.
