just when people can finally use streaming we got limits now.

does this slow our chances to compete with korea in the bandwith market?

Well, if you don't want to have the people using large amounts of bandwidth pay extra, then EVERYONE has to be limited.

AT&T sucks. And deeply and often.

Everything they sell comes with a sure-fire guarantee: NO ONE charges more than we do.

Comcast comes close, though.

A few weeks ago I used my sister`s comcast
I gotta tell you it`s whole lotta diference
I saw tv shows without buffering
dsl barely does that.
it`s as close to how the internet is portrayed on tv
shame I`m too cheap to go to the cable side of the force.
