And they should reward long-term customers as well as newbies. The mobile companies do, now....so why not cablecom? After all, there is frankly [almost] no extra cost to them to give you a boost to a new bundle FOC.
Well I'll just reward them by downgrading my package, paying less and getting more bandwidth :-) But seriously, cablecom have to be careful not to cut their own throats - what if more people decide to respond to these announcements by downgrading their packages? Let's not forget that as long term customers we are also getting a pretty good deal here!

Another angle to consider - they up everybodies bandwidth - how long will it be before they start selling us packages for IP-TV as well? Or if Swisscom wants to start doing this as well? Many people are now buying media center PCs for their lounge rooms - maybe soon this might become more popular!
