| Re: Bullshit... said by S_engineer  :I agree to a certain degree. The customers they lose will then be paid for by the unfortunate customers that are forced to stay. ISPs will always figure out formulas that will elevate your price...your price will never decline! EXACTLY!
this is why bill per byte will raise prices for most people, whether theyre the top 5% or not. bill per byte won't lower prices for people that dont use "excessive" bandwidth, so if their bills do change, it will be going up.
the best idea would be to tell "hogs" to buy the premium packages, or even create a new top of the line package that offers little to no restrictions at a premium price.
just the idea of bill per byte is scarey...it's like prepaid cell phones all over again. i dont want to have to weigh the cost of downloading something i'm not sure i'll ever use/install/etc just b/c i have to pay for it. i'd rather pay a large monthly sum and download whatever the hell i want to download and not think twice about it. |
