Dan's Data has posted some news about OptusNet Cable, an ISP in Australia

OptusNet Cable here in Australia have now officially announced their new Internet access plans and pricing, via e-mail to their subscribers. The new prices are (even) higher than was previously reported. They're also peculiar, in that the more expensive plans, which let you download more megabytes per month before throttling your vonnection, actually cost MORE per un-throttled megabyte.

And not just a little bit more. By my calculations, the top two new plans are overpriced by factors of 1.71 and 2.16, respectively.

With broadband providers all over the world now re-jigging their pricing schemes, joy like this could be coming soon to an ISP near you. Even if you're on the other side of the world from me.
