Re: [merged] Price increase

So AOL might offer 1meg speeds over NTl at £34.99, i.e. cheaper now than ntl will be, but at a slower speed than ntl. Meanwhile AOL 600 k service over ntl gets even less competetive given ntls proposed speed increases.

Or are the AOL cable speeds going to get faster too? But that wouldn't suit their dial up offerrings.
An interesting conundrum me thinks.

*edit AOL may not be subject to a specific cap clause, but they do have the standard overuse / abuse type clauses which would enable them to do an ntl if needed to impose more robust use limits. However AOL did say sometime ago to anticap, when they first launched their services over ntl that they would avoid capping. However I suspect that AOL users arent really "heavy users", as most heavy users wouldn't want to be tied into AOLs proprietary browser and email stuff.
