Nice!

I'm paying $48/m for 100Meg download and that "special CompostCast rate" ends in August...

It may become like electricity here where the rates are allowed to keep soaring and then they give low/free service to whomever the government is trying to buy votes from while charging through the nose for everyone else.

It will be interesting to see what happens with telecom rates... They've become nearly as essential as water, garbage, sewage, electricity and natural gas or heating oil... and all those rates here are highly variable from place to place with all sorts of extra charges added on.

Came out with 300 gig speed internet

Are you sure? That is 1000 times faster than typical and 200 times faster than the fastest I have seen in the big cities.

I'm kind of interested in high speed streaming for it's 'meta' possibilities of virtual live groupings. Are you perhaps referring to a content limit of 300 GB per month or something ?
