I have been a supporter of Verizon Fios for years. I always told my friends that they were stupid not to have Fios if it was available in their area. After trying all the service providers in my area, I chose Fios for their reliable internet and had no problem paying the premium price for it. But over the last few months Fios has been a huge disappointment. What bugs me the most is that Verizon won’t even acknowledge that they are throttling speeds. They may work things out with Netflix and Youtube, but what about the other sites that provide video streaming?
Video streaming is very important to me and Fios is no longer a viable option for it. If they are going to provide a mediocre internet service then they can no longer justify their high premium price for it.
