    I had Cincinnati Bell's FiOptics at my old apartment. I used to be able to download a full length movie in like ~7 min. That shit was boss.

    Then I moved and they didn't offer it at my new apartment.

    14.75 down
    .97 up

    I can't complain about that. It's just fine for our uses here (porn, ohiochatter, porn, etc).

    They do a lot of swapping of plans/downloading GIS images/etc.

    They use it, and they can afford it.
