Prince WJ wroteGuys guys, wait
All I am saying simply is that next month I am going to pay more, at higher speed which will burn faster the Gegas, to turn out that i didnt get a better deal, that;s all
I was thinking loudly, wait for next month and you will notice it, no??
You can interpret numbers any way you want--but I think you are missing something. I always considered the 512 plan having a 4 gig quota, period, end of story. Anyone who told me different was either trying to sell me something or lying, so I never considered the upload portion as part of the quota--who the hell regularly uploads 4 gig per month with a speed of 512?
Now, if you follow this logic, you find out that you get 4x the speed and
5x the quota for a few dollars more (for whatever reason, this group got screwed and actually saw an increase). On top of that, the price of an extra gig dropped 40% from $10 to $6. While I agree you will can blast through the quotas a lot easier, you will be paying less for each gig over. So, if you were to go over 5 gig now, you would be paying an extra $30 instead of $50 on the old plan, but you have a bit more leeway. If you were to download 5 movies with an average size of 700 meg on the old plan, you would have blasted through your quota in no time. Now, getting 10 movies doesn't put as big a dent in your quota as it did before. Who watches more than 10 movies a month anyway?
Now, quotas are still too low and prices are much too high for the service we are getting. That much, I think we all agree with. But at least, we appear to be headed in the right direction.
