Comcast provides a very fast, expensive internet service. Verizon does as well. The numbers are real. You get what you pay for, I suppose.

Depends on where you are located i guess. Comcast is our only high speed ISP available, they are currently charging us 40-50 bones a month for a 4 Mbps plan. It's only supposed to be $24, but they charge an extra 20 for taxes an other made up shit to leach more money out us.

FIOS is capable of 54 megabit networks, 20 from a high end cable package doesn't sound too out of place. They're probably paying an arm and a leg anyways.
