BINGO! Before Windstream took over Alltel, they had a three tier program. Now however, Windstream has a 4 tier program in our area;
1. Home light 750K = 19.95
2. Home medium 1.5K = 29.95
3. Home high 3.0M = 35.95
4. Home extreme 6.0M = 50 something

A lot of folks that I know who download the "must haves" use the 6.0 and say it's "awesome", many music files are finished before they can get the folder destination distributed, and movie files are seconds to the minute now.

I'm sure this caught somebodies eyes?!
