| So... Sounds like the average internet bill will go up to the average TV bill...or the average internet + TV bill?
Already the standard-tier internet service has increased from ~$56 to ~$60 per month including modem rental here. Might go up some more later. Comcast is investing in infrastructure to be sure, but they have plenty of money to do this; their rates are higher than everyone else's but on the other hand their service is better so you've got a bit of a dilemma: pay more for service that's halfway decent or pay less for crap. There's no competition to speak of where I am; Qwest sits squarely below Comcast in speeds and prices, and I don't want to go back to 700 kbps upload speeds when I can get 2+ Mbps.
That said, if Comcast internet creeps over the $70 level for their stadard tier (you know, like digital cable is now once you add in boxes etc.) then I'm going to have to leave. |
