So after that first year of TW, you're only looking at an extra $10 difference between TW's 10MB connection and Google's 1000MB connection. And TW's price is sure to raise more in another year.
TW even words it so they can raise the price however much they want after that 12 month promotion. They won't even quote you what the "Standard rate" will be once your promotion is over. They simply say "After the promotional period ends, you will be charged the standard rate that is in effect at that time. We suggest you contact your local office at the end of your promotional period." What kind of shitty business is that?
Considering Google's prices, and the fact that TW has tons of little surcharges and equipment fees that they don't include in their quotes, Google's prices are more than competitive...

well i've been with TW for a long time(10+years) and my 10mb Road Runner month-to-month is a base 29.99 with a total of 36.99 after all the taxes and shit.
in fact, i think 5 bucks of that extra stuff is because i recently dropped the rest of Time Warner. so they charge me extra for keeping RR. It's 29.99 + 5 dollar rental to TW + tax.
so you're doing something wrong
