createm0nst Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 This is a Google Fiber network speed test. So my city had the chance to get Google Fiber but tax payers would have to pay an extra 50$ in taxes a year, they turned it down. Quote
Antichrist Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 $50 a year is only $4.16 / month. Or 13 cents a day... Gigabit + TV: $120/month ($300 construction fee waived)Gigabit Internet: $70/month ($300 construction fee waived) Just 20mb cable service will run $55-$65/month. It seems to be well worth to upgrade to me. 1 Quote

Chuckun Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Oh my god.. Seriously?!?! How could they turn that down? I would pay £50 more per year for that easy (which is $80).. They are crazy! 1 Quote
Antichrist Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Hell, I'd even be ok paying the one time $300 construction fee for those speeds. That's absolutely insane. I'd almost never have to buffer on YouTube or my Roku again Quote

TulsaGeoff Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 I pay $50 per month and it is much slower :/ Quote
