- I have no need for anything over 200Mbps (and probably not even that much) so a faster speed would not justify a higher price for me
- Poor customer service when I need it would drive me to change on general principle

Right now I am paying $50 for 200Mbps.
If I had to change, $35 for 940Mbps sounds quite attractive
I might be willing to pay up to $75 for 2Gbps understanding that I would be paying $25 more than I am now for bandwidth I might never use. I would be okay with being wasteful with that extra $300.
If I could get 940Mbps for $35 I would probably not be willing to pay another $500/yr just to double that.
