I meant absurd in a good way. Given my internet is also powering my professional line of work, I'd still probably pay $80/month for double the speeds. But it's great others can get some actually decent internet for a small fraction of the cost.

Nah, try living in the midwest suburbs. Comcast charges me $70 for 75 Mbps.

I would gladly pay a lower price for less speed by they don't offer anything lower.

Really depends where in CA. I'm in SF and pay ~$50 for 300Mbps (Comcast), but my parents across the Bay get symmetrical 10Gbps (Sonic) for the same price!

>The prices in CA are what's absurd. $100 for 400Mbps in 2025 is gouging.

Really? I pay $160 for similar speeds in NYC. Which is more absurd?

They are, yes. But my choices here are basically Comcast or AT&T (yes, I'm in a suburb). I'm just choosing my poison. I was using the comparison as a good thing for NYC rather than trying to criticize them when my internet prices are comparatively bad.

Some good news is that they seemed to have upgraded the speeds to 600Mbps at some point in the last 2 years. Not out of gouging land, but better.
