Re: Price the same but faster & faster over the years

Not much point to paying 10 bucks extra for 16/2 over 12/2, though. I'll look forward to downgrading.

Ya, the difference between the two is surprisingly small.

I agree. No advantage at all in paying extra for that very small speed advantage. Especially when Powerboost will make the difference almost invisible except during very large downloads.

Agreed! All I really wanted was the added upstream speed way back when it was 4/384.
Now that it is 16/2, I may back off for a while to the 12/2 myself.

We shall see...

I also agree. I'll either move to 12/2 or 22/5 when it's offered in my area.

put me in that same boat. I will be downgrading if that is what they think is worth the extra 10.

yeah. even that 12mbps download will go largely unused. thumbs up to comcast for throwing its subs a bone WITHOUT a rate hike.

TWC did that as well for their tiers so expect it to be that way. That's like saying you'll be paying 30 dollars a month for dial up now, with times tech get's cheaper so expect lower costs for older tech. That should be expected, not praised.
