If you have 100mbps of non bandwidth capped internet in America, you're doing damn good for yourself.

But what if it costs $95/mo, there are no alternatives and the price has nearly doubled in 10 years from $55?

I sure don't feel that great.

I pay the equivalent of $64 for 1 gigabit.

You pay $4 more than I do for the same thing (with no bandwidth cap). If you're not out in the sticks, internet is fine here.
