Re: When Free means Fee!

In which case I applaud your thrift. I like watching movies streamed from my own router-attached hard disk, or maybe backing stuff up online, or downloading large MP3 albums (for the college radio station I work at). So basically I take all the speed I can get, as long as the rice is below, oh, $70 a month. I also use VoIP over the connection, and the savings of VoIP alone pays for some of that conection cost.

Then your DSL should suit you well. It's cheap but it's not fast.
It does. $32/month for 3 Mbps / 768 kbps. That's fast enough. I can download a movie in a little over a half hour. I have no need for anything faster.

Your DSL is slow. FiOS is 10/2 with a contract. OOL is $45 with no contract.
Whether CV is faster or has free included WiFi is irrelevant to me, as I can't afford $540 per year for their service.

I don't want faster, I want cheaper.
