RE: [Nolug] New feature of Cox High Speed Internet

Hi Charles.

Possibly, but probably not. If an ISP supplies unlimited bandwidth it costs
them more. So they have to charge more.

As a customer, are you willing to pay twice the rate because of the top 10%
who double the ISP's bandwidth if there is no cap? Unless you are in that
top 10%, the answer is generally no - hell no! :)

Regards,

John

Are there *any* service providers for unmetered, un-capped Internet access
in New Orleans?
