Say what you like about the Maritimes, but one thing is for certain: I'm so glad that the main ISP out here is Eastlink. 15Mbps is the stock standard, and for a bit extra you can double that (or, for a lot extra, you can go to 100Mbps). Admittedly there is a 250G advertised cap on the faster plans, but nothing advertised on the 15Mbps plan. Plus, we definitely don't have to deal with weird torrent filtering, shaping, interceptions or anything.

And it definitely is good enough for Netflix.

Just wanted to throw that out there... you never know, they may eventually creep westward and bring some real competition :)
