I am voting with my wallet.
I pay $100/month for a 15Mbps down/2Mbps up line with 5 static IPs and
no ports blocked. There isn't any other ISP that provides better than
a T1 for my outgoing servers for anywhere close to $100/month.
So, I just fight until they finally get the DNS change that I
want...hopefully that won't take the 6 months that it has taken other
people.
