Hummm ...  In my area CenturyHell offers an oversubscribed 1.5 Mbps DSL for $41.20 a month. It's like a time machine that takes you 15 years back with pocket loss and crappy customer service. |

then you must be in an area where they have competition. we pay $35/month for 1.5/256 in places where they can get away with it because they are the only phone co and the only ISP then that can offer DSL...... they have no competition and they know it. I have friends getting 10mb service for what I pay for 1.5, but they live where there are competitors. |

Umm? Turd? Embarq? You are using AT&T wireless and you call embarq a turd? Hate to break it to ya buddy, 10mbit internet here + satellite + long distance, $99/mo. Sounds pretty damn competitive to me? |

said by S_engineer  :Didn't know centurytel had that kind of money....seems to me if they waited a little longer, like after XOHM fails, they'd get it cheaper. hey, when you charge people $30-40 for 1.5mbps DSL YOU TOO can hoarde back a lot of money to go buy failed companies.
This merger won't happen. Once the dems take office FCC is going to get shitty. The corporate ecosystem has been perverted far too long by letting these mergers happen while the debt is just shifted around. Let that turd Embarq go under and let other companies buy up the pieces they want. That is how real competition happens. |
