Re: Not a bad strategy either...
Exactly...
I'm happy with a solid/unthrottled/uncapped 3Mbps/512kbps fastpath DSL connection at $25 price range.
The problem that I will see in the near future...
Companies will 'sour' the basic/low end plans with low caps and/or throttling. Forcing users up to higher end plans.
What doesn't make sense from a technical standpoint is throttling/capping low (1.5Mbps) plans... they aren't consuming 'excessive' amounts or disrupting as 10-50Mbps users can. Its a pure cash grab by souring the basic plan to be unusable.

Uhhhh....
Do you mean $30? 3.0 mbps / 512 kbps. AT&T just raised the prices on that speed tier by 5 bucks.
If you are still under a contract, you won't see the change until your term ends. |

yeah what happened to LOW PRICES?
i'd love to have your $25/month package - i can't really get dsl that fast - that's what needs to be fixed, not more expensive and faster, but better service and cheaper. |
