[vcf-midatlantic] Way OT: Internet Access Prices

[Sentrytv]

The biggest issue where I live is
Optimum has a monopoly.
Paying $100 for a 1Gb download and 35Mb upload is reasonable.
 However the upload, here, is the issue.
They don’t even offer a 30 MB upload except on over a gb download and you have to pay more than 100 bucks.

I’m in western Maryland, and paying $110/mo for Comcast Gigabit (1.25gbps
down, 35mbps down). There is no competition, even from DSL, where I live.
