So I've never in my life watched TV online before b/c I like to watch on my TV, not a small monitor, but b/c Cogeco, the network or the TV guide makes mistakes almost all the time with either not airing all the episodes, or making mistakes with the listings of the shows, I always end up missing a few shows here & there (including the season finale).
Anyway, I finally found a way to access Hulu (thank gawd) & so I started watching episodes I had missed.
The next thing I know, I'm being charged extra to watch those shows.
In fact I didn't even know that's what the extra charges were for let alone how they calculate how much each episode is worth.
I was VERY upset.
When I went to inquire with my American team members how this could be possible, I was told in the US everything is unlimited. That Americans wouldn't put up with that (of course).
This is NUTS. How do Canadians watch TV online if they have to pay such ridiculous rates for surpassing the 60 GB DL every month? I only watch 1-3 shows per month & it cost me $10-17???? That's terrible. I could rent the entire season on DVD for that price.
My team member asked how Canadians deal with Xbox & Wii both of which I don't have.
A manager I have a connection to showed me my upload & DLs every month & I upload way more than I DL. That's b/c I run businesses online.
