I keep getting ads for Comcast & Verizon on how much I will benefit from their services.
Come here, want to buy some candy? My reality is I pay our local Cable provider $102/month for expanded Basic which has all of the major networks I am interested in. With this I also get internet which officially is 100Mbps download/20Mbps upload. In reality I get 125Mbps download/30Mbps upload. None of my downloading is throttled, ever. No way Verizon or Comcast will give me all this for $102/month. 73, Gary KA1J > Looks like they are really p*ssed off that they are not going to be able to > charge all that extra money for using fast channels.
