| Verizon == Comcast? I understand that many on DSLR are incapable of enjoying their porn unless it comes over fiber connection... but many of you are living in a dream world. Unless you're in a wealthy urban area, Verizon will never install fios.
Also, what I read from the article is that Verizon is going to turn into a cable TV company. But I think cable as we know it is dead in the water. I can already watch what I want but don't get any longer (due to no cable) on iTunes or Hulu for free or nearly free (watching a commercial, but fewer than on cable TV...). Unless Verizon plans to block those services, I don't see how they are going to be able to sell that stuff except to complete morons... oh wait, carry on, Ivan, carry on. I forgot that most people are stupid.
Does verizon really charge over $10 per month in fees on home phone service (a.k.a. "landline")? That is ridiculous! I just checked my Qwest bill, and for phone and DSL both, I had $10 TOTAL in fees AND taxes for 2 1/2 months, so just under $5 per month including Uncle Sam's cut. I think the fees here are less than they were on my post paid cell phone with VZW. But you never hear people bitch about that... nor the 20¢ per text message or the $20 per month plan. |
