Picking the worser of two evils...Limits or Lag
We have always been different from the average family. Just as an example, we don't have cable. I'll wait while everyone picks their jaws off the floor. We have managed to live the past year without cable. If we are going to watch television of any kind it's either on Youtube or some app on our XBox. It does seem weird and a lot of times when major events happen I'm the last to hear about it. My husband tells me and he usually hears it from the radio. When the decision was made to move out to the country the thought that high speed internet not being available with all the technology we have no a days didn't seem like it would be a big issue we are only 1/2 a mile off a major highway and 10 miles from being in city limits.
Now 2 days from closing [NAME OMITTED] is in panic mode trying to figure out what we are going to do about our biggest complication. I personally don't think it is an issue but if you have satellite and you do any online gaming (which Brad does and in a few years B will too) then there is a lag. This is a 'deal breaker' for [NAME OMITTED] on Satellite. So our only option is a Verizon Home fusion with MyBlueDish. However the major downfall for this is that you don't get unlimited usage. You have three options $60 for 10GB and $90 for 20GB or $120 for 30GB. Brad's convinced we will use more than 30GB with how much streaming we do.
I have spent about 4 hours calling countless companies to solve this 'dilemma.' My solution is buy more movies instead of streaming them online but in a few years I'm sure you'll be able to store your entire movie collection online anyway so seems like a bit of a waist. I will let you know how this all plays out hopefully we can get it fixed so Brad doesn't insist we move back to the city all because the internet isn't what he wants.... Boys! :)
Hope all is well I'll be posting a blog about our move soon! SO excited!!
