Re: 30mbps cable

Hmmm, capped service or uncapped service? Even Comcast with their 250g cap is low. At&t will probably cap its non u-verse customers who have only dsl service and pots. I have been saying for years now that video streaming will catch on and over take caps. These companies like Comcast are catching on to the fact that people like myself actually use the connection to stream video. For those that say, you must be doing other things if you are reaching the caps like illegal P2P, that is a load of horse shit. More and more sites like Hulu are popping up now and more and more video will compete directly with some ISP's other service such as cable television. Since some companies internet service is directly competing with its television service. Guess what happens? Caps, that's right, let me say it again, CAPS. Do you think these companies actually like competition? Look at the way they react now with any such suggestion that there is a monopoly or duopoly. Now guess how they react when one of its own services starts to compete with another of its services. Caps, caps, caps, caps....... Until there is true competition consumers will suffer. I say its time for the justice departments antitrust division to break these companies up so different companies offer separate services.

AT&T is testing caps in Beaumont and Reno. 150 GB max, including 18 Mbps U-Verse. 250GB on Comcast simply rules out online backup in high-end cases. 150 OTOH...meh!
