 en102Canadian, eh? join:2001-01-26 Valencia, CA | The reason that they're pushing PPU consumption Is because we've hit a spot where the 'average' consumer doesn't care whether they have a basic speed (TWC 'standard' = 10Mbps here) or Turbo Extreme +20Mbps. The average customer would probably not care if it was in the 1.5Mbps-6Mbps range if it was $10-$15/month cheaper (TWC's form actually charges me MORE for 1.5Mbps than 'standard' 10Mbps ).
Where they 'can' make a difference in pay for consumption. Unlike paying $10/month to hit another tier - this has the ability to cost users big money if they aren't watching. -- Canada = Hollywood North |
