Re: $30 Dial Up.....
said by smokarz  :man, i could still remember the days when AOL/Compuserve charged customers $20-$30 a month for dial up...i wonder what happened to them now.... You've not been online long enough. CompuServe in the 80's charged $22 an HOUR for prime time connection via dial up and that was in the days when 2400bits per second was considered 'blazing.'

There was an upgrade option from dial-up, you could move to dsl or cable. Now that a lot of people have either of these what's the next step? There doesn't really seem to be one since AT&T is doing Uverse and only Verizon with Fios is doing something substantially different speedwise. With no really competition except cable, which around me tends to be more expensive anyway, I don't see prices doing anything but keep going up. |
