I pay and PAY and PAY so DOUBLING my bill affords me (no pun intended) the right to complain and damnit Im gonna complain and bitch untill my lungs bleed. And as long as you continue to pay and pay an pay, the price is only going to continue to go up and up and up. You just don't understand modern economics: keep increasing prices and/or reducing product volume until you reach the point when you're losing customers faster than you're building bottom-line, then back-off a notch. The ideal scenario is to make as much money or more than you make today with lower cost-of-goods-sold (which, for ISP's, means less customers to support and less back-end bandwidth to buy).
The nice thing about selling Internet access is you literally get to have your cake and eat it too: You have 45mbps of Internet pipe, and you sell 1mbps to 5,000 (or more!) people. And unlike the Real World™, you never have to refund a customer's money when you're caught overbooking. |
