Re: Pricing

I mostly agree with that.

Where I live, Charter is the only option that costs less than $100.

I have Charter Business Internet for $67 and it's not very reliable. But, I can't expect them to because of a lack of an uptime guarantee. However it's bad enough that I have a dial-up account with Copper.net just in case Charter goes out. The dial-up as backup is good enough because while I don't *always* need fast downloads, I do like to be able to do basic things no matter what.

Truth be told, there are ALWAYS other options. T1 and higher is always an option, albeit a pricey one. The question is, are there other options in the sub-$100/mo. bracket?

If Charter charged $400/mo., then I'd just go for T1, and that's probably what everyone else would do, or just not get fast Internet (among those who don't consider it important).

All I know is that when my apartment lease expires, I'm making sure I can get DSL at the next apartment. Anyone else interested in the same thing can look at whitefence.com, which can tell you what you can get based on street address.
