Yeah, but then Comcast would double my connection bill. :-D

Hmmm, wonder if this will help with flying/sailing. Must test.

[Two Important Updates on 2011 Land Pricing]

That's exactly what they are going to do, I'm sure.  Leave the current land rental in place, then offer a "pay as you go" region rental where the region host pays significantly less for a set period of time, then all the attendees pay a fee to access the region during the "event."

Event can be anything from a regularly scheduled class, meeting, or entertainment venue, or private party.

When the event is over and your pre-paid time is up you take your stuff and vamoose.

This way (to my estimation) they can significantly reduce the number of servers and cut their overhead way down.  And many more people will be able to experience having a whole region to themselves for whatever limited time they can afford.

In other words, you can continue to pay through the nose for monthly region rental, or you can give up your full time region and just rent one sporadically as needed. Totally sucks for those of us who want an established venue, but they don't care I'm sure.

Seems to me there will be a bigger market for "venues in a box" sooner than later. Better get busy.
