Re: Cable is doing well in US; & Docsis 3 will keep them there

The things that would keep me with a provider are:

a) Price and performance. I don't need +10Mbps connection, and don't want to be forced to a high cost product because ISP has an insanely low cap on 6Mbps and lower tiers.

b) Usability - if its up/down all the time (DSL) or overloaded nodes, its not functional IMO

c) Bundle - POTS is overpriced, AT&T offers no VoIP in Los Angeles... Cable does. At some point I may end up scrapping traditional voice and TV (OTA HD works well). $45/month for Internet + ~25 for VoIP is reasonable. Increasing rates for non-bundled services does not always sit well.
