| Yep I like the idea of a bare-bones broadband. I think if you'd like extra "features" you could pay an extra $5-$10/month. Then you'd have e-mail, spam blocker, anti-virus, spyware removal, etc. People on this site might not realise it but a lot of people like the proprietary portals and stuff. And I think if they want it they should have it offered, and for those that don't want it we can simply lower our bill a few bucks. Just my dos pesos.

Once the services are offered a-la carte, you will pay more to get the same service.
Beyond the basic service you can always get the service of your choice. There are many web hosting companies that provide you email, dns etc. If you are not satisfied you cane easily switch. You can register your own domain for as low as $8-10 a year.
Most ISP email and newgroup services are close to useless anyway. Even the basic thing such as running relaible DNS servers is questionable. Once the bare bone service is introduced ISP can perhaps charge for these services a little more and offer a higher QoS as well. I am sure most people (AOL types) will stay anyway even at the higher exppense. Perhaps people would see real services instead of software that are normally free to download and use anyway. | |

| Me, too... In fact, said it the other day in the article on Broadband Portals... see »What a coincidence! for the gory details, if you wish.
Yes, "we" are a minority--but, come on guys! Earn some customer loyalty by offering something for the minority!
