We have Comcast in our area.  We don't really try to compete with them.  As
far as price, our monthly cost is half of theirs.  However, their cost per
Mbps is much much less.  Most customers in our area get between
25-100Mbps.  We still get a lot of people switching because they don't need
that much speed, don't want to pay that much per month, and are tired of
the constant price increases and customer service issues.  We always make
Comcast customers go online and check their last few months of data usage,
since they are virtually unlimited and we are not.  We don't even attempt
to take Comcast business customers.  They give them 100Mbps for roughly the
same that we charge for 10Mbps.
