Re: Virgin Medias Project Lightning

In reply to a post by Chrysalis:
thats a odd argument, traditionally you charge what you can get away with and if someone is receiving more they charged more. In business revenues have no consistent margin with costs, its about supply and demand more than anything.

Plus I disagree with you anyway that there is no extra cost, this is spread on the myth that peak traffic demand doesnt cost anything.


So, if they are charging what they can get away with then it is better for them to charge everyone the same rate for Gfast. Offering people slower packages and charging less for them would go against that.

I think earlier I did say that costs are the same assuming the same usage. And as the backhaul can be contended then peak usage can be managed through contention.

My point was more about if a gfast port will cost the same as a non gfast port.
Like when adsl2+ was costing the same as adsl1.
