In my area, you're on Comcast if you're pissed off at Verizon, and you're on Verizon if you're pissed off at Comcast. I'm on Comcast because I was a Verizon early adopter, with DSL in the 90s. It got to the point where even their cheapest packages were at least an order of magnitude faster than my speed. Sure I could have called and gotten a new package, but it's like they were just keeping me at the original speeds out of spite, like they actually had to do work to keep me so slow. Just like the stories of that little old lady who's still paying a monthly rental fee for the phone in her house. I'm sure Comcast will do something to piss me off in the next few years and I'll go back to Verizon.
