Re: No caps = high price

I agree, but to be fair this cable company is small and doesn't have the economy of scale or resources that the larger operators have.

Hopefully their release of a very high-speed tier is accompanied by an increase in the speeds of the lower tiers.

If not then a ludicrously expensive 50mbit tier won't mean much to anyone but the most hardcore of users.

Only 240,000 users total & also only rolling this out to a couple communities right now(West Fargo, Sioux Falls, Moorhead(MN)). No schedule available of how soon they will roll this out to their other 197 communities.

Well, Midco did indeed up their other tiers so I'd say the net impact of a D3 rollout is positive. $125 for internet is a bit rich for my blood, but with no caps I'm sure it's an alpha telecommuter's dream.

Me? I'd probably try the 50/5 tier for a month, then go back to 25/2. If it was 50/10 or 50/15 I'd stick around longer though...
