Chattanooga has been doing gigabit at $70 for a few years now. I have had it for at around 2 years myself now without TV service.
That's awesome. LUS may lower their prices depending on popularity. Still a great deal regardless.

You won't get gig speeds as pretty much no servers can deliver it to you. You will most likely a lot less than that most of the time. I would say somewhere in the neighborhood of 200-400 most of the time up and down.
I'm curious to see about this. With the 80 up and down I have now to torrent downloads, streaming, etc. it is smoking fast. I might upgrade at some point, but right now I don't think I need it.....
Do you notice a huge difference? (with the gigabit)

LUS may actually get my priced lowered, Chattanooga has been actively trying to stay ahead of the curve. I hope we see 10 gigabit soon here. It was around $300 a month when first installed many years ago. We were one of the first with it in the USA. Google came on the scene and they dropped it to $70 and made 100 up/down mbps real cheap. I think we only have 100/gig options now. Not sure haven't looked in awhile.

On anything that can support my speeds, I notice a huge difference. Everything is pretty much instant with no loading. Some things are still slow just because of the source I am getting it.
I moved on to hosting a lot of my own stuff with it as well.
