| Re: Speed / price ratio.
Speed isn't the whole story, as many messages make clear. What would the data look like if scaled by $ per month per Mbps? From the reviews, it looks like cable would win by a country mile, typically delivering 5-10 times the bandwidth per dollar. So far, most cable operators do not seem to offer static IPs, support for network connections, good bandwidth stability and the (marginal) security of a dedicated connection. Most of these are really interesting only to business customers. Will residential customers continue to pay high rates for these features?
