Yup it must have broken BT`s heart to have to keep those prices high ?
I wonder what is the true cost of Capacity.
BT as the monopoly supplier can get away with charging what they like.When they privatised most of the state utilites
there was quite an element of competion but when it came to BT not so.What was that other Telco that faded away,
was it "Mercury" or such like i forget.
Perhaps if BT had spent a bit of money on their infrastructure like most modern IT providers like the cable companies the
whole country might have been in a better position vis
broadband.
So when 100Mbit speeds arrive will we still be expected to
only use 50gb.
If the total internet infrastructure had been planned and run like BT run broadband in this country i hate to think
what our download speed would have been reduced too.
Just had a look at my total download for November
its 947.33gb and i wasn`t even trying to get a huge total.
Guess i`ll have to throttle back a bit as my latest ISP has
mentioned on their forum about one of their "pipes" being overloaded,i wonder if that was cos of me.
