lol if this was the case my bill would be umm lets say 1000 a month 
never happen here, not with fios coming. TW would loose so much business.
It would only affect a small amount of people. If you think you are one of them. I can assure you, you are not.
can u get me a log ryan on how much ive downloaded over the last year?
id like to see.
if possible.
This would hit me hardâŚ
3gig in browsing, i just downloaded a 4gig movie and 2 700mb movies.
from working at CC and signing people up for direct tv and how easy it was to switch them, and looking at the #'s they are doing now, etc. and TW looosing BIG time on HD channels and not showing any sign of trying to catch up⌠and how they are so udnerhanded at advertising FREE hd, but not creditign me on my bill because i would have to CALL and ask to get the âextendedâ hd channels free F them⌠as soon as i leave this apt im soo done with that BS
why would they try to curb peer to peer transactions? They are the ones that provide the fuckin service so that you can perform peer to peer!!! I cant wait till fios is here, the electric in my neighborhood is in the fuckkin ground so we are pretty far down the list.
Uh because of people taking advantage of torrents and other ways to fileshare.
taking advantage of? you mean using the service they paid for to its full potential
zackly
and I really hope that they do it⌠Iâd love to see people flock away from them, forcing them to offer reasonable prices.
I like crazyjonâs idea
Iâm sure if i worked at verizon iâd assume people are flocking in for FIOS as well and TW is doomed⌠However that is far from the truth. Buffalo TW will be doing alot this year to expand HD, TW just took over Adelphia here a year ago, which was a company that put enough money into buffalo to keep the system running the next day. TW dumped alot of money into the crap left behind, they canât just come in and flip a crap system into a top of the line over night. I think theyâve done quite well, launching phone and already hitting 20k+ customers in just a few months⌠TW is going very strong in buffalo, take it how you want, you seem a bit misinformed though.
I suppose that you work for TW?
The majority of Adelphiaâs revenue-generating assets were officially acquired by Time Warner Cable and Comcast on July 31, 2006.
Officially aquired, 7/2006. Not last year. Oh, and they started moving assets in 2005.
âŚand, I seem to remember Viper there saying that he worked at ingram micro. My aunt works there, and they have nothing to do with verizon.
You seem a bit misinformed.
once Verizon finally gets the rest of their infrastructure setup and starts offering TV with it and if TW doesnât drop their prices or increase bandwidth capacity, theyâre done for.
I donât know a single person who actually likes their TW service⌠theyâre just waiting patiently for fios
seriously i hate this too, but your missing the point, most users could pay 5-10 a MONTH for the serivce because they just web browse etcâŚ
now the 1/3 of the people who use all the bandwidth? they post here
:bloated:
I find it pretty suspect that Powerlink suddenly had more bandwidth once FIOS started becoming readily available.
TimeWarner (locally at least) has been saying âWeâve had Fiber for years, its our infrastructureâ, well, then why the hell didnât they move their bandwidth caps upwards until just AFTER FIOS started gaining more momentum?
Everyone I know that has had PowerRunner for years is salivating for FIOS to get to them. Well, everyone that actually has and / or uses a PC. So, figure, honestly, 30 out of 30 other nerds.
Yes yes, if the only thing you could pick out is the acquired date to shoot back at me i think i did pretty well⌠A year, year and half big deal. I didnât think i needed to pick out the exact time, trust me i know when they were taken overâŚ
ingram micro? wtf does that have to do with anything?
That is most certianly untrue, adelpia did huget hings to expand their market and were in the middle of updrading their infrastructure when all the shit went down. They were about to move the companyâs operations to buffalo. I was with the company in 01 and it was nothing but blue sky back then. And then tim regis decided to play monopoly with the companyâs money.
The bandwidth was always there but docsis 2.0 wasnât implemented until mid-late 2005 so it wouldnât have mattered. Then the modems needed to be swapped in most cases.
Even my mom, gramma, and older coworkers email & browse photobucket, Itunes, and other bandwidth intensive stuff. They have no idea how to P2P or anythingâŚ
Otherwise, yea, I agree with you.
