This will have an impact if you want to cut the cord. With a lot of good options to cable, they are doing their best to stay relevant. How long will they keep the customers on the lower tier of speed? Indefinitely?
This is a big problem with the lack of competition in the US and a troubling sign as we move towards the end of net neutrality. I have 2 options: AT&TT and comcast. So i chose AT&T even though I'm not happy. Google fiber has slowed their expansion. It's like two bad options. Comcast has been pretty bad, long term and in the short term, with net neutrality. Why should they get any benefit of the doubt?

Last week, Comcast announced speed increases for customers in Houston and the Oregon/SW Washington areas. The announcement headlines were "Comcast increases Internet speeds for some video customers."
Customers with 60Mbps Internet download speeds are being upped to 150Mbps; 150Mbps subscribers are going to 250Mbps; and 250Mbps subscribers are getting a raise to 400Mbps or 1Gbps.
Comcast says speed increases will kick in automatically without raising the customers' monthly bills—but only if they subscribe to certain bundles that include both Internet and TV service.
