That's 3000 cents per meg or 30 dollars. The scary thing is, there are ppl out there who are fine with that. Wish i had so much money.

It is a shame that people have to excercise extreme paranoia by being customers to these outfits. I am extremely suspicious of any product or service that requires my name or address. Too many people have been getting ripped off as of late. I am a capitalist, but I am highly suspicious of any product that comes from a big company.
