Mercury & Speakeasy
by Steve Gibson, Nov 11, 2002 4:40pm PSTAs its just a hopping Monday it seems like a good time to announce a little perk that has come through via our relationship with the kind folks at Speakeasy as of a few hours ago. All existing and future ShackDSL/Speakeasy DSL customers now get Fileshack Mercury service at a discounted price (about 15% off). ShackDSL/Speakeasy customers, Just go to www.speakeasy.net/tac/ and click 'add services' and you'll see a big old Mercury logo. Speaking of this stuff, things have been going well on getting more benefits put into the package in the future. Yes we are fully aware that many people would like a 'bare bones' type of service just for files, as well as a metered type of service for light/sporadic usage. These are both things we plan to look at in the coming year and I do hope we can offer them. Lastly, I'd like to give a very very very big thank you to those of you who have decided to subscribe. Something like this is just the ticket to our being able to get Maarten here to the US, and bringing in Jason our recently married console monkey as a full time employee. Your support is greatly appreciated, thank you. :)

I wouldn't mind paying $5 or whatever it is, but I would like to know what the deal is, is it free or not so I can switch and start paying or just stay like I am right now.
(I have another account which is the Mercury one).

Just a thought.
Not like there'd be much of a discount to give..

i know i said negative things in the past about it, but i'm coming around.
And joining Mercury was well worth the price for me. It was not about waiting in lines...I don't care about that. Speed was not an issue due to my horrible connection. For me, it was about supporting the Shack.

Though speakeasy mentions I can get some form of dsl (idsl I think, gave up on checking, for long distance + not as good quality I hear) for ~100 a month, plus ~250-300 setup :( :( :(

I could have developed my FPS skills so much more with online stuff.
