Cogent didn't go bankrupt and prices didn't go back up....instead they kept falling like a drunk guy walking through an oil slick.....and odds are they will continue to do that.

Pardon me if I don't believe the predictions about bandwidth pricing at $4/meg being a temporary thing that will only last until the people offering it go bankrupt.

This thread from 6 years ago was spot on at that time. This old 'rant' has nothing in common with the current AR situation. Nice try! Great bump :)

Brad

How can you say that your current rant has nothing in common with this rant and keep a straight face and expect people to take you seriously?

The only major differences are the numbers ($40 per meg instead of $4 per meg) and the year in which the thread was started.

6 years ago Cogent was an entirely different network not build to support hosters like it is today. Cogent is currently a world class network, everything is different now. If you re-read the original post, I was explaining how they came to be. Even back then, it was mostly hosts improper sales/use/delivery of Cogent that contributed to huge to the negative stigma attached with it as a network.
