Expensive Cable vs. Cheaper DSL/Satellite

Lets see cable dsl was 2000-$29.95, 2002-$34.95, 2003-$44.95. These prices take into account the "bundle discount"????
Now Verizon DSL 2000-$49.95, 2002-$39.95, 2003-$34.95, 2004-$29.95. Does anybody else see a pattern here?
Sorry Cable, you just arent going to survive. You cant raise your prices every year and then cap your customers when they use the internet too much.

Re: Expensive Cable vs. Cheaper DSL/Satellite

Cox have reduced speed service that Cost $25, same as DSL.
This is not a published price, and you need to insist,
See if other cable service have the same.

What are you talking

Re: Expensive Cable vs. Cheaper DSL/Satellite

DSL is getting cheaper, but look at the pathetic speed and unreliable service youre getting for the money. DSL is down every other week in most areas, especially Verizon. I've had Road Runner for 3 years now without any problems. My speed went from 2.0 mb/s to 3.2 mb/s and it is now at 5.4 mb/s. Verizon runs around 500 kb/s. Can you tell the difference?

I really wish anonymous folks wouldn't post. Because he is right, with DSL you do get 500k during peak time, but for the price.....

Yeah, your review is right on target.

Their Newsgroup service SUCKS. REALLY SUCKS. They throttle you down to nothing nowadays.

E-mail is hit or miss, as you stated.

But my cable modem speed has dropped WAY below where it used to be....I'm topping out at 2.4 Mb....where I used to top out at 7 Mb (Did we over extend our nodes a WEE bit;) ?)

And for that, I'm paying more.

So, getting Verizon FiOS this week....15 Mb up, and 2 Mb down....FULL TIME !!!!

Woo Hooo ! Bye bye OOL !!:D
