I always assumed that the US was relatively cheap for this kind of thing
10Mbps down/640Kbps up Connection with 60GB of usage per month with HDTV (I have about 15 HD Channels and I also have anime on demand on this bill) with VOIP (anywhere in Canada/US excluding Alaska and Hawaii is considered a local, and thus free call) for.... about $140 CND per month. :/

The sad thing is that's fairly cheap for a done package, though we have some "extras" like the anime on demand is 6.99 and the HD receiver rental is 9.99/month then the SD receiver is 5.99/month.

Nope, north america in general is lagging behind in high speed internet connections and prices. Everyone else advanced theirs while north america has been offering the same speeds (rates have only gone up..) for the past 5~7 years now.

I get 5mb/s download and 500/k upload for $35 a month. Quite stupid.

..Microsoft dosen't make actual computers...they only make software.
Windows isn't bad at all either, you just fail at using it >_>
