On the website under subscription terms: there is a one year term and a month-to-month. Would the amount under month-to-month, be what is charged after, if you choose the one year term???
Question answered, I went to the SBC site. Yep, that is the price charged after the one year term. Pretty weird(and crappy), that broadband still costs so much after all these years.
Product demand is high enough for it to stay so high. If I were you, I'd still get it, because it's definitely worth it. Plus, if you need to compare to something of similar category, look at how Microsoft's OS hasn't really ever decreased in value. Just thought it was in a similar boat as broadband.
