Do not kid yourself, you are paying for that access. They just lump it in with the rest of your bill. Which means that many Verizon Internet customers are paying for a service that they will never use.
I never said otherwise. That's why we take advantage of it

Edit: Er, I guess I did say we have it for "free". Let me put it this way, we're not charged directly for using it unlike say premium channels which explicitly cost more.

Saying we're paying for a service we never use is also like say we're paying for channels we never watch. True, but not really the point given how media services are delivered these days.
