How many....

people can even GET 40Mbps already? Not that many I would think...

I think that would be kinda hard to do out in the middle of no where. No way in hell would ANY company offer those speeds in more than 80% of the Qwest service area. It's one of the most rural telephone companies besides ATT and CentLink focuses on those areas. Although CentLink would be smart pushing out the Qwest TV product that ran over VDSL that Qwest killed a few years ago.

I can, but I won't pay $100+/month for it.

The only change I'll see

is I will have to change the name and routing number for where the money goes to pay the bill each month on my online bill pay at the bank.

Re: How many....

I am in a city and Qwest only offers me 5Mbps/896kbps. :P

I do. My trained rate is 40/20 with it being slightly less on both because of overhead.

I only live a block away from the terminal. =)

Centurylink has their own product. Nextlevel/Motorola is long gone. Plus if you were a customer that liked the service and now has say fast internet and a direct tv bundle would you switch back after being burned?

Next Level was bought by Motorola, but Motorola's TV solutions business sure isn't gone:

I just got my grandma to switch from CenturyLink to Bresnan. She was paying $135/month for phone, TV (just basic DISH Network), and 256K DSL. Now she'll get phone, TV (including Starz and Encore), and 8mbps (soon to be 16mbps) Internet for about $115 the first year and $125 after that.
