I pay $130 a month for cable, 100 MB Internet and a phone I don't need. The 100 MB Internet regularly tests at about 120 MB Down and 30 to 40 up. Xfinity's 2 GB service is available around here, but at $300 a month plus a $500 onetime fee that's more than I care to spend for bragging rights. There are a number of markets in the US with access to GigaByte speeds. Google fiber only runs $70 a month for GB service.
