No, you are. You crying because somebody is charging someone to use their shyt. Why aren't you crying about Netflix charging you to view shyt thats readily available for free? Most of you same c*nts were in the cut cablle breh thread. But somehow you crying because in the future you might have to pay a little extra, when you can simply bypass that and dl the shytty netflix shyt, just the same as you dl other shows on channels you choose not to pay for. Basically you c*nts, just bytch to bytch.

STFU

Please educate yourself. If you don't want to read basically the Govt gave the ISPs that your dumbass is sitting here defending 200 BILLION to improve their infrastructure like other countries did and they did NOTHING. And now they want to charge for shyt they already received money to improve

:what: Comcast is on fiber. They just don't run it to the house.

DAMN NEAR ALL OF THEM ARE ON FIBER. FIBER IS JUST TOO EXPENSIVE TO ROLL OUT BEYOND THE CENTRAL NODES. THE AVERAGE CONSUMER DOES NOT USE ENOUGH BANDWIDTH TO JUSTIFY THAT COST. I THINK THE AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD IS DOING LIKE 6-10 GIGS A MONTH BEFORE NETFLIX.


THIS IS LIKE AN OIL COMPANY CHARGING YOU MORE FOR GAS BECAUSE YOU BOUGHT A HYBRID.

IN the article I posted, they were already given money from the govt (conversely us) to improve their infrastructure and they just kept it.

HOW MUCH CASH WE TALKING THOUGH? AND AT WHAT TIME? BECAUSE THEY DID MAKE VAST IMPROVEMENTS TO THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE. FIBER LINES WERE EXTENDED. COMCAST INVESTED HUNNIDS OF MILLIONS INTO SWITCHING FROM RG-59 TO RG-6 BACK IN THE EARLY 2000'S. THAT INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADE IS WHAT TOPPLED MANY OF THE LOCAL CABLE COMPANIES AND ALLOWED COMCAST TO BECOME WHAT IT IS TODAY.

you say they spent a couple hundred million. this article says they were given $200 billion back in 2007. Looks like they got 199 billion left to spend :mjpls:

MY BAD. THAT'S WHAT THEY SPENT IN DETROIT.

Let's presume they spent $1billion in every major city in America (which I doubt). They's still have $150 billion left, they pocketed that shyt. Paid off the politicians to red tape google from setting up their shyt and now they have the nerve to say Netflix is using too much of their resources.

PART OF THAT MONEY WAS ALSO USED TO ACQUIRE THOSE SMALLER LOCAL CABLE COMPANIES. COMCAST IS PLAYING A GAME RIGHT NOW. THEY ARE SECURING THE PAPERWORK BEFORE THEY ROLL OUT. YOU DON'T ROLL OUT A SERVICE UPGRADE LIKE THAT AND LET IT BE THE WILD WEST. THEY'RE SETTING THEMSELVES UP FOR THE KILL WHEN THEY SLIDE FIBER DOWN THE POLE.

GOOGLE IS EITHER POURING JELLY ON THEMSELVES OR THEY ARE IN BED WITH CABLE ON THIS.
