"Internet Service Comparison
Discussing Cloud vs. SDCard it became apparent that we really don't know what kind of service others have. It is easy to assume that everybody else have the same kind of service as you do. I thought it might be useful for us to have something to compare with. So, when you feel like it, please list your service, speed, price etc.Mine are:
Local cable provider. Installed fiber optic cable to the house. Gives me 30 Mb down and about 7 Mb up. Price is $42 (exchange rate fluctuations apply) a month. No caps. Service works fine, 2 - 3 times a year the service may be down for a while, a whole day if it is a Saturday or Sunday. I think this service is becoming expensive........"

Difficult to beat a rubber band for value.....
