lt cap,
Whoa! Possible $10 per 50GB after cap is exceeded? That sounds
insane - I (unfortunately) have Comcast, represented as a 25 Mbps
download speed. I also have a 4k tv. If it takes a *real* 25 Mbps
download speed to stream 4k, I can't do that - Usually, what I'm
really getting (as per download of Diablo 3's updates) is 3-5Mbps.
That's a no-go. Blu Ray disks, on the conservative side, seem to be
about 30GB total, if I've got that right. Soo..after you exceed
your cap, there'll be an extra $10 for every 1.66 blu ray discs you
watch, on top of the rental fees? (Yes, I get it I think - compress
the download, 'unpack' it in the background while it plays, I would
think). And it would make sense that Comcast would basically say,
"Wanna watch blu ray? Upgrade to 'Blast' - your 25 (advertised)
download speed will make it look like a slide show. Sleazy,
probably. Not surprising that Netflix might lobby for a 'fast lane'
given this, I think.
In other news: NOK has stopped acting like a 'dirigible'
floating above the mess and blood on the street - altho down less
than the Nasdaq average. INFN's (AKA 'The Hindenburg') $1 trading
range today just makes you wonder: Has the street lost all touch
with reality on INFN, given the upcoming CC on Feb. 11th? Or have
we become so used to way outsized valuations that realistic ones
seem 'unreal'? I'm almost tempted to buy again and option it
out, but owning 3k shares is already feeling rather bloated.
My cost for NOK is showing $6.63 as my cost basis, with $0.63
profit per share. I don't see the acquisition date but if I look
into it, I'm sure it will just be as wacky.
