Yea... My Commercial Cable modem at 4 mb with a static IP only cost
129.95... 69.95 if I wanted a dynamic IP....
Home service is 49.95 for the same bandwith....
A little greedy for the static IP IMHO......

My 2 cents: Never get caught between an ISP and a telco in a pissing match!!
The customer looses every time!!!

The way capitalism works is new entrants come in at 1 penny less,
or some other gimmick to gain market share for awhile. Then sell out
to the monopoly.
Moore's law was doubling power every 3 years. What percent of
the economic gain of Moores' Metcalfs, etc. went to end users?
Most of it got efficiently contained within the dominant firms.
Internet gets cheaper when there is no provider---when some
element gets designed into the hardware, of course pigs will fly
before they let go of the last chokepoint, the Westin --Todd
