At the moment Verizon's pricing in OOL territory seems to be a bit high for the speeds, or rather the speeds are low vs. what OOL is offering at the similar price point. This should fix that. I'll take 15/5 over 15/2 any day of the week, and 25/15 over 30/5...even if the 30 is really uncapped...any day of the year. Considering the pricing on 25/15 via DSLExtreme is a mere $55, I'd call that an upload-speed deal. Same thing with 15/5...around here I'd be willing to shell out $80 per month for those speeds, easily 
Abut contract extensions, who cares? If the service is that good, I don't mind sticking around for a year.
If 20/5 actually does become 25/15 then naturally you could expect the 20/20 tier going up to 25/25 and the 50 Mbit tier going up to 50/25 or higher. So naturally I'd get 25 Mbps symmetric...mmm, heavy-duty symmetric fiber connections. Wish I had one.
All this to say that I'd rather have 25/25 than 50/10 or even 101/15. especially when 101/15 is running over cable infrastructure that is just barely high-bandwidth enough to handle the load.
For low users, 15/5 for $40 is a very, very nice deal... |
