thank god, they need to make the internet prices competitive, F monopolies, I hate one company setting the price in a given area, internet has been like that for a while, even though I can't complain with AMAZING charter internet I have always gotten here for 19.99-29.99 for the last 15 years.
But in chicago, the comcast internet SUCKS BALLS, its horrible. and it cost around 50-60? WHAT 50-60???
All the big companies are sitting on bandwidth. They dole it out only when competition comes.
So Time Warner magically came along moving my 15mb package to 100mb for FREE a few months ago, just as ATT UVerse came along with "gigafast" internet, just as Grande came along with Gigabit internet.
Google is still laying fiber for its product, and the other three are shaking in their boots.
FYI, I live in a rural suburb of Austin, the only choice for high speed internet is time warner. Nothing else. I can't even get DSL.
