@home going under?

[dawks]

Looks like it.. Maybe someone good will take over and do it right this time.. Perhaps Yahoo! (my personal pick).

@home almost dead

I fail to see how they can be doing so bad when they charge $50/month

i guess they should start capping, I use A LOT of bandwith (down only tho)

PS: Its not pr0n, anime iso's MV's etc

It really pisses me off when people don't read the link to the story they posted - it's not @Home that's going under - it's Excite@Home that's going under - AT&T is it's parent investor.

I was under the impression that @home was the ISP division of AT&amp;T.

RagingBITCH,

Excite@Home is the parent company of the @Home network. They merged a year or two back. If Excite@Home goes down the tubes, there is no more @Home.

Should that happen, you know the cable providers will find another network provider. I could see a large cable company buying 360networks and reselling the network to the other not so fortunate cable companies.

Damnit! I hope this doesnt come to pass :disgust:

@home owns excite. Its actually @home-excite. but that doesnt sound good.

 

[tigerbait]

excite is the problem... they killed @home

 

[morkinva]

does that mean comcast@home will be affected ?

 

[Schlocemus]

Blah! This would really suck if it goes through :disgust:

 

[N8Magic]

<< does that mean comcast@home will be affected ? >>



ALL @Home providers will be affected. They will have to find someone to replace @Home as their network provider. Don't worry, the cable companies aren't oblivious to this fact, and will have someone waiting in the wings.

Dear god I hope I don't lose my cable .. no way I'm going back to dialup.
