$300! Wow. I pay about 80 from Comcast for the same service, actually unsure if it has a soft cap. We average about 600gb per month usage. Comcast is also our one and only choice so I am at their mercy with price changes.

Wow 80. I pay 10 euros for about the same.

What country would that be in? Sounds amazing! 10 euros for gigabit!

Perhaps Lithuania, Latvia, Romania or Bulgaria.

Internet access is dirt cheap in Tokyo too

Last time I lived in Seoul it was cheap there as well, but that was about 15 years ago.

That’s Lithuania. However I am pretty sure it will be more expensive soon.

10 Euros for a ~gigabit? That's crazy! In 20 years that's only 200 Euros. Even ignoring the cost of procuring the gear and maintaining it and the business for 20 years I'm not even sure how that covers the transit costs for the data during that time.

Presumably he means per month not per year? As does the people above him paying $80 and $300? So his 20 year payment would be 2400 Euros.
