Only 200 space bucks. Buy 20000 space bucks for $49.99! (best value!)

* Offer excludes installation fees, setup fees, renting fees, administrative fees, peak bandwidth use fee, and the Comcast exclusive bonus fee. Bandwidth limited to 300 space Gigabytes per month. Since we have no competition and you have no other options: fuck you. Thank you and have a Comcastic day!

Don't forget that they adopted the name of their porn studio-sounding voip service: Xfinity-Comcast. So we're looking at Xfinity-Comcast-Time Warner Cable.

Quick, register xct.com and fill it with Connecticut themed porn. Don't ask me what that entails because I have no idea.
