However, I say again, if there were real competition, there wouldn't be any caps or other nonsense going on.

Oh, I completely agree regarding competition. We see TV ads from other ISPs, but they are actually only available in the outlying areas that are underserved by the Big Two. So while it looks like there are options, there really aren't.
Things are fine while I'm happy with my service, but if I wasn't, my choices are to live with it, switch to Comcast, or move. I don't like any of those options. I'd much rather live in a world where telcos don't eat up everyone on their lines (which is what happened - we used to actually have more options) but that's a dream for the moment.
