| Double dipping. Normally with a metered service you would pay what you used and maybe small fee for the service itself. In this case if they wanted to charge per gigabyte, they should offer services like 5 bucks a month for 5gb + 10 cents a gigabyte after that. But they are setting the base price at an outrageous level like 50-60 bucks a month and trying to cap the service and implement a large fee for additional bandwidth. For 50-60 bucks a month you definitely should have unlimited bandwidth. No way to argue otherwise. The costs just are not there. The money they are making off of 60 bucks a month for an internet connection + expanding into the phone business has to be astronomical. Internet access is going to have to be protected because clearly companies are not willing to offer services at a reasonable price. |
