This is a sentiment I will never understand:

[T]ens of millions of Americans [are] seemingly immune to the lure of more speed and [are] satisfied with dial-up services. A majority of Americans who surf the Internet still do so by dialing in on regular telephone lines, despite the rapidly narrowing price gap between high-speed and dial-up connections.

Please...pay the extra ten bucks and stop wasting your time waiting for pop-ups to load!
