"Less than four months after aggravating thousands of high-speed Internet customers by forcing them to change e-mail addresses, Rogers Cable Inc. is raising its prices by more than 12%." to $44.95  Apparantly new suc... I mean customers have been paying the increased price since last November.

(Now there's an understatement.  Changing e-mail addresses?  They think that was all they caused?)

Story also claims that it's the same as Sympatico suc... sorry again, customers have been paying, and that it's lower than US cable customers pay.  Right.  But US cable customers get twice the bandwidth (I've seen it), and their cable company techies generally know how to configure DHCP and mail servers too. (saw that too!)

Sorry for venting.
