said by TypeS:Because I explained how there other alternatives if higher upload is crucial to someone right now while other ISPs catch up?
For pointing how ridiculous it is to compare the speed of an internet service a vital resource to sustain life?
Think its time to re-evaluate what constitutes "dumb".
You're assuming those are viable alternatives. I didn't say it was crucial either but the year is 2013 not 2002.
I don't think it is vital but you're implying that essentially no one has any requirement for reasonable upload speeds and no having to have a money tree to attain those speeds is not reasonable either. I don't consider the "new" speed tiers from Rogers to meet my definition of reasonable either. They bumped up to speeds to make their connections just "usable" but that's about it.
