I pay $80/month for internet. My only options are Comcast or DSL, and guess how many improvements Comcast has made to their infrastructure around here in their last, say... 20 years.

 

Move across town where Comcast has competition with fiber and suddenly their service doesn't blow massive buttdicks. Weird how that works.

Things like streaming games could absolutely be the future, but it will never be widely possible/available as long as ISPs have no incentive whatsoever to improve their product in 90% of their markets.

And then they impose a datacap..cause, you know, the internet is a finite resource

A friend of mine who apparently is some long time MS customer, got one of those special emails(with a personalized link) from Microsoft letting him know that bundles were available to purchase from some pool of inventory they had set aside.  He got one and a game for just over 500.  Lucky bastard.

I did the same.  Had to select an extra controller and a digital game.  I just chose gtav because it was only $15.  I didn’t know Microsoft was doing this at the time, so I didn’t think it would work!
