Uh, no... Internet IS getting better (slowly) but premiums aren't getting cheaper. And don't mistake cheap prices for good internet because cheap internet ($30 - $40 monthly) gets you cheap speeds. (5 Mbps - 15 Mbps)

I really don't know what you are talking about. Or how in good conscience anyone can say what you are saying.
- Its actually pretty good we are even in a world where 5mb/s - 15Mb/s could be considered as "cheap speeds".
- In my part f the world I pay $50+ for Tier 2 internet of 20Mb/s (Tier 1 is 6Mbs@$40 and goes all the way up to Tier 5 or so @ ridiculous). But at my part of the world everything costs more than it should. But t put things in perspective.... this time 2 years ago that $50 would have got me 6Mb/s.
- I don't know how it is for you, but 20Mb/s means pretty fast downloads and buffer free 4k on youtube and netflix. As it stands the only reason I can think of to having internet even faster than what I have now is that I won't have to take abut 5 - 8hrs downloadingg some games. But thats not even real issue as most games I get are preloaded or i just start the download before I go to sleep.
- The internet is not immune to competition. Fact remains that we are getting a lot more internet for what we used t pay before. And that will keep getting better.
- You say "slowly"....... I am sorry but how much faster do you need the improvements to be? And look at the gains made in internet speeds over the past 5yrs. and the 10yrs.... and thats slow growth to you?

You mentioned "my part of the world" a few times.
What part of the world might that be? Because if you corrected me and made statements regarding internet for a country that you don't live in...boy would that be disinjenuos and arrogant....
