Re: $25, $40, $55
No. I recognize when a company is trying to hide the insane profits by adding more of the same instead of just lowering the price. Didn't Microsoft corner the market on this strategy? |

I know. Right now they're using it as a "catch" tier, offered to users who think they're paying too much and are threatening to cancel service.... |

TWC has a light teir in many areas, they just don't tell anybody about it.
I love the guys that come into these forums and tell everybody that X speed is all that anybody needs. Well some people have different needs, you might like a skateboard to get to work and I prefer a car.
Those packages are a pretty good price (with the exception of the light one). Hopefully RR will follow, but it doesn't look like it. |

Do they fear that making the $25 too good won't get $40/month out of subscribers?
That's exactly what they fear, and I think it's a big reason many companies like TWC haven't rolled out "lite" tiers yet.... |
