Re: What time frame?

said by The Limit:

I don't see why any household would need that kind of bandwidth.
Why would anyone need a processor faster than 4.77 MHz?
Why would anyone need more than 594 KB of memory?

Then we got faster processors, and more memory -- and the applications that used them.

I could see 20/20 or 30/15 or even 30/30, but if you use more than the average home, then it might be best if you move up to the business account

I'm with you on this, but at the same time the world isn't perfect. ISPs want to be the gatekeepers, plain and simple, and if you want unfettered access to the internet, either you protest until you're blue in the face, build your own network (hardly possible), or pay more (which is probably what you will end up doing, sadly).
True -- or support all three.

There is NOTHING wrong with higher fees -- as long as a market is a healthy market, the prices will stay in line. But with these monopolies, we're simply at the mercy of a few despots or we do without.

... Should we pay those who are "too big to fail" more money to ensure they stay that way? ...
