Druid Dude,

Well, one would at least hope that this unilateral rate hike is based on a thoroughly scientific polling of their user base rather than simply "because Steve Case thought he could get away with it."

The analysts say some pretty silly, flippant things sometimes. Still, there might be a grain of truth...

Mr. D.,

Actually, the previous quote to your quote is even better:

"Some analysts were surprised by the timing of the announcement, although others feel that subscribers are willing to pay more for quality service."

Say it three times really slowly. Yes, I believe it now.
