Well, damn.

luckily it's like $10 for 50 more gigs. so if i do go over it's not a crazy charge.

 

[Butters]

I went over once before when I got this 8TB external hard drive for my xbox. I was downloading every single game I had in my library to it so that way when i want to play it i can transfer it super quick from the hdd to the xbox and they basically said since i was a first time offender they would waive the charges. don't think i've went over since.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

I’m thankful, as far as I know, don’t have a limit on my internet like that

 

[Butters]

probs an iowa thing

 

[Butters]

only got so much internets to go around

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Fucking Iowa man. Can’t live with it, can’t live without it

i have 2 companies to pick from, the main cable company which is what i have, it's gig speed downloads(usually only get like 400mbps) and a 3TB data cap a month which is pretty big honestly. Then, we have a smaller company that is gaining popularity because it doesn't have a cap. you pay for a speed and use it as much as you want. However, in my apartment I have one speed available and its 12mbps.

 

[Butters]

i pay around $105 a month for my internet. the slower one I believe was $40 but that's with a promo, i think it's like 60 or 80 full price.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Well definitely keep an eye on it, and if the speed gets better for your apartment, might be worth switching. But yeah, with 12, definitely would not get it lol

 

[Butters]

I almost switched, thought who cares if i have to wait longer for stuff to download, i'll be saving money each month, but netflix recommends 25mbps to stream so if i'm advertised 12mbps i'll probably be getting like 5 and my tv watching will be buffer city

 

[Butters]

my phones data speed is faster than that, i get anywhere from like 50mpbs to 900mbps on my phone depending on where i'm at.

 

[Chris]

My only option at this apartment is AT&T but thankfully it's pretty great, fast speed and unlimited

 

[Butters]

yeah AT&T is pretty good in it's areas. it gets 0 services where i live for like anything.

 

[Butters]

I have Mediacom which is probably just a midwest type company
