> Where have the prices been shown to rise?
You do realize that the result is the same, whether you first reduce your prices as costs decrease and then raise them again, or just don't bother reducing them in the first place, right?

So, are you saying that moving around the video traffic doesn't cost them anything? Or how else are they paying for that, if not by keeping the price for other traffic artificially high?
- BoorishBears 9y agoIt cost them less, you get downgraded to lower res streams and in exchange they don’t limit how much you can view. And the idea is they have a choice, raise base prices, or add packages. It’s not add packages or don’t.
- zAy0LfpBZLC8mAC 9y agoNothing wrong with packages. Just everything wrong with packages for particular services. The solution is really simple: Offer packages of traffic. If people need 10 GB/month for low-res video streaming, then sell 10 GB/month for 5 EUR.
