Oh...and in the latest & greatest category: there're several
new subscription-based streaming gaming services I read about. I
don't remember what their internet speed requirement was though. I
"think" it was around 15Mbps.
I just checked my speeds: 32.3Mbps dL/5.1Mbps uL. TWC has
improved since the last time I checked it...oh, fuck! Now they'll
want to raise my bill again even though this is what I was promised
when they raised it the last time. The state of NY sued them over
this very issue and won. That won't change how they operate in the
future though. You know how it is. By the time they're caught at
anything inappropriate they'll have more than enough to pay for any
damages. :-(
