Their billing model is still “port speed based on line rate, aggregation based 
on peak CIR”, so it’s still completely broken.

All they’ve done is fiddle around at the margins of the magnitude of the 
breakage.

Wake me up when they’re serious enough to bill aggregation on a 
flat-rate-per-port pricing model. Their costs don’t vary with consumed 
bandwidth, so there’s no reason (other than politics) why their price should.

You people (ISP industry) need to be angrier about this. Every dollar of profit 
NBNco makes is a dollar of profit that’s been expropriated from your bottom 
line. When NBNco says they have a plan to increase ARPU, MPs should be able to 
hear your enraged screaming from Canberra. They’re just using fancy language to 
describe how they’re going to transfer wealth out of your industry and in to 
NBNco, eventually to be owned by Telstra.
