    Fuck that. Making $30-50 per month on a freaking internet connection is profit out the cunt. They can't, in any way shape or form, convince me they're not making a hefty profit every month on every single user.

    Sounds more like they need to beef up their shit with the profits their making to handle the additional load

    The infrastructure is what costs a lot of money. Broadband costs should only go down in the future. I'm barely willing to pay $50 a month at this point, that opportunity cost is going down, not up.

    Since I just play online PC Halo I don't care if they up the price for the Xboxers and PS2ers... as long s they don't charge more for PC connection. ;)
